Exposing Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) seedlings fed with soil nitrogen to 10−50 ppb nitrogen dioxide (NO2) for several weeks stimulated the uptake of major elements, photosynthesis, and cellular metabolisms to more than double the biomass of ...

Post-translational tyrosine nitration of eosinophil granule toxins mediated by eosinophil peroxidase
Nitration of tyrosine residues has been observed during various acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. However, the mechanism of tyrosine nitration and the nature of the proteins that become tyrosine nitrated during inflammation remain unclear. Here we

RNA and mRNA Nitration as a Novel Metabolic Link in Potato Immune Response to Phytophthora infestans
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) exhibits a well-documented nitration activity in relation to proteins and lipids; however, the interaction of ONOO- with nucleic acids remains unknown in plants.

Copper-Catalyzed Tyrosine Nitration
Tyrosine nitration, often observed during neurodegenerative disorders under nitrative stress, is usually considered to be induced chemically either by nitric oxide and oxygen forming nitrogen dioxide or by the decomposition of peroxynitrite.

Selective nitration of Hsp90 acts as a metabolic switch promoting tumor cell proliferation
Tumors develop in an oxidative environment characterized by peroxynitrite production and downstream protein tyrosine (Y) nitration. We showed that tyrosine nitration supports schwannoma cell proliferation and regulates cell metabolism in the inheritable ...

Proteolytic Degradation of Tyrosine Nitrated Proteins
Tyrosine nitration is a covalent posttranslational protein modification that has been detected under several pathological conditions. This study reports that nitrated proteins are degraded by chymotrypsin and that protein nitration enhances susceptibility to degradation by the proteasome.

Tyrosine Nitration Impairs Mammalian Aldolase A Activity [PDF]
Protein tyrosine nitration increases in vivo as a result of oxidative stress and is elevated in numerous inflammatory-associated diseases. Mammalian fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolases are tyrosine nitrated in lung epithelial cells and liver, as well as in retina under different inflammatory conditions.

Biochemical characterization of reactive nitrogen species by eosinophil peroxidase in tyrosine nitration [PDF]
It is well known that eosinophils are involved in tyrosine nitration. In this study, we evaluated tyrosine nitration by rat eosinophils isolated from peritoneal fl uid and constituent eosinophils in the stomach.

Glyoxalase I is inactivated by nitration of its tyrosine residues
Glyoxalase I, an anti-cancer target enzyme, catalyses the detoxification of the cytotoxic hemithiolacetal formed between methylglyoxal and glutathione (GSH) by rearrangement to S-D-lactoylglutathione, which, in a reaction catalysed glyoxalase II, is ...
