Cys25‐nitrosylation inactivates papain [PDF]
IUBMB Life, 1998 AbstractNitric oxide (NO) may modulate the catalytic activity of cysteine proteases. In the present study, the inhibitory effect of NO, released by the NO‐donors (±)‐(E)‐4‐ethyl‐2‐[(E)‐hydroxyimino]‐5‐nitro‐3‐hexenamide and nitroprusside, on papain action is reported.
