Contents
The binding of oxygen to heme irons in hemoglobin promotes the binding of nitric oxide (NO) to cysteineβ93, forming S-nitrosohemoglobin. Deoxygenation is accompanied by an allosteric transition in S-nitrosohemoglobin [from the R (oxygenated) to the T (deoxygenated) structure] that releases the NO group. S-nitrosohemoglobin contracts blood vessels a...
