Nitric oxide (NO) is a messenger molecule implicated in a number of physiological processes. Nitrosation of selenoproteins has been suggested as playing an important role in NO-mediated cellular functions such as the inactivation of glutathione peroxidase (GPx), but no chemical information aboutSe-nitrosated species has been available to date. Here a stableSe-nitrososelenol (RSeNO), a new class of NO derivative, was synthesized and fully characterized by X-ray crystallography and spectroscopic methods. ThisSe-nitrososelenol can be formed by direct transnitrosation from anS-nitrosothiol to a selenol, as is the case in the proposed mechanism for the NO-mediated inactivation of GPx.
