iNOS

iNOS, also known as NOS-2, is a 131 kDa mammalian protein composed of 1,153 amino acids, which are assembled into two major domains, a C-terminal reductase—containing a flavin mononucleotide (FMN) binding subdomain—and a N-terminal oxygenase.iNOS adopts a zinc-bridged, homodimeric quaternary structure that allows the enzyme to convert L-Arg to L-citrulline with the concomitant production of NO. This transformation is governed by an elaborate electron transport chain, involving the cofactors nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), flavin mononucleotide (FMN), heme, and (6R)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin (H4B), which are essential for this reaction. This process is mediated by CaM, which binds in a hinge region between the oxygenase and reductase domains.

    Human serum albumin
    		Inhibitor ≥99.0%
    Human serum albumin (HSA) is the most abundant protein in plasma and is a major determinant of plasma oncotic pressure. Human serum albumin exhibits antioxidant, anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, anti-platelet aggregation activities as well as colloid osmotic action. Human serum albumin can block the inhibitory effect of GML on human T cells, providing protective function for T cells. Human serum albumin is also associated with cardiovascular diseases and can partially prevent the LPS (HY-D1056) induced oxidative stress, as well as the upregulation of NF-κB, NF-κB, and peroxynitrite (ONOO−) in the vascular wall, contributing to the reduction of blood pressure.
