2 L-arginine + 3 NADPH + 3 H+ + 4 O2 NOS catalyzes the formation of NO via a consecutive two-step reaction. In the first step, L-arginine is converted to N-hydroxy-L-arginine, in the second step, N-hydroxy-L-arginine is further converted to citrulline and nitric oxide, two different mechanisms, overview. During catalysis, mediated by calcium/calmodulin, electrons flow from NADPH through FAD and FMN in the reductase domain of one subunit of the homodimer to the oxygenase domain of the other subunit, substrate-ligand interaction in the Fe2+-O2 complex, overview Mus musculus 2 citrulline + 2 nitric oxide + 3 NADP+ + 4 H2O

Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
FAD required for catalysis Mus musculus
FMN required for catalysis Mus musculus
heme the heme is coordinated by a cysteine residue on the proximal side, and the substrates, Arg or N-hydroxy-L-arginine, bind above the heme iron atom in the distal pocket, while the cofactor, tetrahydrobiopterin, binds along the side of the heme Mus musculus
NADPH required for catalysis Mus musculus
tetrahydrobiopterin the cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin binds along the side of the heme Mus musculus
