Description:

Many globins convert ^(•)NO to innocuous NO(3)^(-) through their nitric oxide dioxygenase (NOD) activity. Mycobacterium tuberculosis fights the oxidative and nitrosative stress imposed by its host (the toxic effects of O(2)^(•-) and ^(•)NO species and their OONO^(-) and ^(•)NO(2) derivatives) through the action of truncated hemoglobin N (trHbN), which catalyzes the NOD reaction with one of the highest rates among globins. The general NOD mechanism comprises the following steps: binding of O(2)...
