  • Title: Regulation of apoptosis by protein S-nitrosylation.
    Author: Mannick JB.
    Journal: Amino Acids; 2007; 32(4):523-6. PubMed ID: 17136512.
    Abstract:
    S-nitrosylation/denitrosylation of critical cysteine residues on proteins serves as a redox switch that regulates the function of a wide array of proteins. A key signaling pathway that is regulated by S-nitrosylation is apoptotic cell death. Here we will review the proteins in apoptotic pathways that are known to be S-nitrosylated by endogenous NO production. The targets and functional consequences of S-nitrosylation during apoptosis are multifaceted, allowing cells to fine tune their response to apoptotic signals.
