Human NOS2/iNOS (Nitric Oxide Synthase 2, Inducible) ELISA Kit

The kit is a Sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of NOS2/iNOS in serum, plasma and other biological fluids. Detection Range: 78.13--5000pg/mL. Sensitivity: 46.88pg/mL. Protein function: Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body (PubMed:7531687, PubMed:7544004). In macrophages, NO mediates tumoricidal and bactericidal actions. Also has nitrosylase activity and mediates cysteine S-nitrosylation of cytoplasmic target proteins such PTGS2/COX2. As component of the iNOS-S100A8/9 transnitrosylase complex involved in the selective inflammatory stimulus-dependent S-nitrosylation of GAPDH on 'Cys-247' implicated in regulation of the GAIT complex activity and probably multiple targets including ANXA5, EZR, MSN and VIM (PubMed:25417112). Involved in inflammation, enhances the synthesis of proinflammatory mediators such as IL6 and IL8 (PubMed:19688109). [The UniProt Consortium]
