Nitrite reductase activity and inhibition of H₂S biogenesis by human cystathionine ß-synthase. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Nitrite was recognized as a potent vasodilator >130 years and has more recently emerged as an endogenous signaling molecule and modulator of gene expression. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that regulate nitrite metabolism is essential for its use

Structure and molecular evolution of multicopper blue proteins
Biomolecular Concepts, 2010 The multicopper blue protein family, which contains cupredoxin-like domains as a structural unit, is one of the most diverse groups of proteins. This protein family is divided into two functionally different types of enzymes: multicopper oxidase and ...

Nitrite accumulation during storage of tomato fruit as prevented by hydrogen gas
International Journal of Food Properties, 2019 The adverse effects of intake nitrite upon human health are well known. However, eating fruits and vegetables is one of the main pathways to absorb nitrite because of nitrogen assimilation in plants.

Nitrite Reductase Activity of Cytochrome c [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2008 Small increases in physiological nitrite concentrations have now been shown to mediate a number of biological responses, including hypoxic vasodilation, cytoprotection after ischemia/reperfusion, and regulation of gene and protein expression. Thus, while nitrite was until recently believed to be biologically inert, it is now recognized as a potentially

Anti-oxidant effect of nitrite in the pancreatic islets of type 2 diabetic male rats [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2023 Objective(s): Nitrite, a nitric oxide (NO) donor, increases insulin secretion from pancreatic islets and has positive metabolic effects in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Here, we test the hypothesis of whether nitrite-induced insulin secretion is due to blunting
