Abstract
Nitric oxide mediates a number of different physiological functions within every major organ system. Nitric oxide is a simple diatomic molecule that possesses a wide range of chemical reactivity and multiple potential reactive targets. Three basic biochemical pathways—interaction with metal centers, reaction with reduced thiols, and production of nitrogen oxides—will be considered and discussed in terms of modulating the biological function of proteins by nitric oxide.
