S-nitrosylation mediates synaptic plasticity in the retina
… modification of proteins called S-nitrosylation and if it contributes to the modulation of the dynamic range of vision. In the central nervous system, including the retina, S-nitrosylation has not been considered to be significant under physiological conditions, and instead, has …

A role for glutathione in reactions between oxidants and proteins
… The NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione caused S-nitrosylation of H-Ras on four cysteine residues;Within NIH/3T3 cells overexpressing H-Ras, H-Ras was S-glutathiolated on multiple thiols by diamide. At least one of the cysteine residues modified in cells by diamide is normally lipidated, …

Modulation of calcium signalling in human sperm by nitric oxide
… of NO, GSNO and dithiothreitol on protein S-nitrosylation, assessed using the biotin-switch assay, closely paralleled their actions on [Ca\(^{2+}\)]\(_i\). Progesterone mobilizes stored Ca\(^{2+}\) in human sperm, by a mechanism involving ryanodine receptor (RyR) activation. Pre-treatment …

Nitric oxide induces chromatin remodelling in the developing central nervous system
… neurons upon BDNF stimulation, thereby inducing Snitrosylation of a wide array of nuclear proteins. S-nitrosylation of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) decreases its affinity for chromatin, leading to increased histone acetylation levels. This NO-dependent regulation of HDAC2 promotes changes in …

Modulation of Hypoglossal Motoneurons by Nitric Oxide
… of a background TASK-like conductance and an S-nitrosylation-dependent activation of the instantaneous but not the time-dependent component of the hyperpolarization-activated current (Ih) generated by hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide gated (HCN) channels. These results suggest that …

Repulsive cues and signalling cascades of the axon growth cone
… relation to Spalmitoylation, the reciprocal of S-nitrosylation, I propose that nitric oxide causes collapse by crossing the cell membrane to inhibit S-palmitoylation–determined localisation of proteins. These results reveal some of the many pathways involved in growth cone collapse, whose further …

Redox Regulation of Akt Phosphorylation in PTEN-/- Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts
… Akt via an oxidative inhibition of PTEN by S-nitrosylation. During the course of this study, it was noticed that in mouse embryonic fibroblasts that do not express the tumour suppressor PTEN (MEFPTEN-/- cells), a decrease in the intracellular level of O2.- abrogated the hyperphosphorylation of …
