Protein Kinase Cα Phosphorylates a Novel Argininosuccinate Synthase Site at Serine 328 During Calcium-Dependent Stimulation of Endothelial Nitric-Oxide Synthase in Vascular Endothelial Cells *♦ [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS) utilizes l-arginine as its principal substrate, converting it to l-citrulline and nitric oxide (NO). l-Citrulline is recycled to l-arginine by two enzymes, argininosuccinate synthase (AS) and argininosuccinate ...

Interference With the Citrulline-Based Nitric Oxide Synthase Assay by Argininosuccinate Lyase Activity in Arabidopsis Extracts

open access: yesFEBS Journal, 2007
There are many reports of an arginine-dependent nitric oxide synthase activity in plants; however, the gene(s) or protein(s) responsible for this activity have yet to be convincingly identified.

Argininosuccinate Synthase as a Novel Biomarker for Inflammatory Conditions

Biomarkers, 2013
Argininosuccinate synthase (ASS) plays an important role in regulating metabolic functions in mammals. We previously reported that hepatic ASS is released into circulation at very high concentrations in response to endotoxin and acute liver injury. We propose that ASS may serve as a novel biomarker for various inflammatory conditions.

Phosphorylation of Argininosuccinate Synthase by Protein Kinase A

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2008
Argininosuccinate synthase (AS) is essential for endothelial nitric oxide (NO) production and its regulation in this capacity has been studied primarily at the transcriptional level. The dynamics of vascular function suggest that an acute regulation system may mediate AS function.

Troglitazone Up-Regulates Vascular Endothelial Argininosuccinate Synthase

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2008
Vascular endothelial nitric oxide (NO) production via the citrulline-NO cycle not only involves the regulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), but also regulation of caveolar-localized endothelial argininosuccinate synthase (AS), which catalyzes the rate-limiting step of the cycle.
