Protein NOS2A

URN urn:agi-llid:4843
Connectivity 1495
Name NOS2A
Description nitric oxide synthase 2, inducible
Notes Nitric oxide is a reactive free radical which acts as a biologic mediator in several processes, including neurotransmission and antimicrobial and antitumoral activities. This gene encodes a nitric oxide synthase which is expressed in liver and is inducible by a combination of lipopolysaccharide and certain cytokines. Three related pseudogenes are located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq]
