Rabbit Anti-Phospho-NOS3 (Ser1177) Recombinant Antibody (C9C3) (CBMAB-CP0593-LY)

Nitric Oxide Synthase 3

Nitric oxide is a reactive free radical which acts as a biologic mediator in several processes, including neurotransmission and antimicrobial and antitumoral activities. Nitric oxide is synthesized from L-arginine by nitric oxide synthases. Variations in this gene are associated with susceptibility to coronary spasm. Alternative splicing and the use of alternative promoters results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

Nitric Oxide Synthase 3; Nitric Oxide Synthase 3 (Endothelial Cell); Constitutive NOS; Endothelial NOS; EC 1.14.13.39; NOS Type III; EC-NOS; NOSIII; CNOS;

Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is implicated in vascular smooth muscle relaxation through a cGMP-mediated signal transduction pathway (PubMed:1378832).
NO mediates vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced angiogenesis in coronary vessels and promotes blood clotting through the activation of platelets.
Isoform eNOS13C
Lacks eNOS activity, dominant-negative form that may down-regulate eNOS activity by forming heterodimers with isoform 1.

Specifically associates with actin cytoskeleton in the G2 phase of the cell cycle; which is favored by interaction with NOSIP and results in a reduced enzymatic activity.

Variation Asp-298 in NOS3 may be associated with susceptibility to coronary spasm.

Phosphorylation by AMPK at Ser-1177 in the presence of Ca2+-calmodulin (CaM) activates activity. In absence of Ca2+-calmodulin, AMPK also phosphorylates Thr-495, resulting in inhibition of activity (By similarity).
Phosphorylation of Ser-114 by CDK5 reduces activity.
