Protein attributes
| Sequence length | 1209 AA. |
| Sequence status | Complete. |
| Protein existence | Evidence at transcript level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. Involved in the induction of immune gene expression. Ref.1 |
| Catalytic activity | 2 L-arginine + 3 NADPH + 4 O2 = 2 L-citrulline + 2 nitric oxide + 3 NADP+ + 4 H2O. |
| Cofactor | Heme group By similarity. UniProtKB P29475 Binds 1 FAD By similarity. UniProtKB P29475 Binds 1 FMN By similarity. UniProtKB P29475 |
| Enzyme regulation | Expression is dependent on and stimulated by NADPH, calcium, BH4 and calmodulin. The activity is not dependent on FAD and is not stimulated by its presence. Ref.1 |
| Tissue specificity | Constitutively expressed at a low level in the larval fat body, hemocyte, Malpighian tubule, midgut, silk gland and adult antenna. Ref.1 |
| Induction | Induced strongly in the fat body by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Ref.1 |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the NOS family. Contains 1 FAD-binding FR-type domain. Contains 1 flavodoxin-like domain. |
