Abstract：
:To better understand the mechanism of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, we studied conversion of N-hydroxy-L-arginine (NOHA) or L-arginine (Arg) to citrulline and NO under single-turnover conditions using the oxygenase domain of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOSoxy) and rapid scanning stopped-flow spectroscopy. When anaerobic nNOSoxy saturated with H(4)B and NOHA was provided with 0.5 or 1 electron per heme and then exposed to air at 25 degrees C, it formed 0.5 or 1 mol of citrulline/mol of heme, respectively, indicating that NOHA conversion had 1:1 stoichiometry with respect to electrons added. Identical experiments with Arg produced substoichiometric amounts of NOHA or citrulline even when up to 3 electrons were provided per heme. Transient spectral intermediates were investigated at 10 degrees C. For NOHA, four species were observed in the following sequence: starting ferrous nNOSoxy, a transient ferrous-dioxygen complex, a transient ferric-NO complex, and ferric nNOSoxy. For Arg, transient intermediates other than the ferrous-dioxygen species were not apparent during the reaction. Our results provide a kinetic framework for formation and reactions of the ferrous-dioxygen complex in each step of NO synthesis and establish that (1) the ferrous-dioxy enzyme reacts quantitatively with NOHA but not with Arg and (2) its reaction with NOHA forms 1 NO/heme, which immediately binds to form a ferric heme-NO complex.
