The crystal structure of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS) heme domain complexed with NO reveals close hydrogen bonding interactions between NO and the terminal guanidino nitrogen of the substrate,l-arginine. Dioxygen is expected to bind in a similar mode which will facilitate proton abstraction froml-Arg to dioxygen, a required step for O−O bond cleavage. Structures of mechanism-based NOS inhibitors,N5-(1-iminoethyl)-l-ornithine andN-(3-(aminomethyl)benzyl)acetamidine, provide clues on how this class of compounds operate as suicide substrate inhibitors leading to heme oxidation.
