Scientific Background: | The diffusible free radical gas nitric oxide (NO) affects a variety of physiological functions, and is a key regulator of the cardiovascular, nervous, and immune systems. NO is synthesized in many tissues from L-arginine, oxygen, and NADPH by three known isoforms of a heme-containing flavoprotein termed NO synthase (nNOS/NOS-I, iNOS/NOS-II, and eNOS/NOS-III). nNOS is a constitutively expressed neuronal NOS isoform that exits in its latent form until it is activated by the binding of calmodulin follo wing elevation of intracellular calcium levels. The C-terminus of nNOS contains a conserved serine residue, Ser1417, analogous to Ser1177 of the constitutively expressed endothelial NOS isoform (eNOS). Phosphorylation of Ser1417 is believed to regulate nNOS activation, particularly in glucose-sensing neurons, where inhibition of AMPK pathways by glucose and leptin serve to suppress nNOS activity, whereas activation of AMPK by insulin leads to nNOS activation. |

Western blot analysis of nNOS, pAb (Prod. No. BML-SA227) using whole cell extracts from (1) rat brain (BML-SW103), (2) mouse brain (Prod. No. BML-SW104), and (3,4) 10 ng recombinant rat bNOS (Prod. No. BML-SW109). In lane (4) the antibody was preincubated with Prod. No. BML-SP227 blocking control peptide. The nitrocellulose membrane was probed with Prod. No. BML-SA227 at 5 μg/ml. The secondary antibody was GAR-AP diluted 1/2000 and the blot was developed with BCIP/NBT.
