Enzymatic and non-enzymatic transnitrosylation: “SCAN”ning the SNO-proteome
In a recent study in Cell, Zhou et al.1 propose enzymatic transfer of nitric-oxide (NO)-related species from SNO-CoA to target proteins involved in insulin signaling; this function comprises an SNO-CoA-Assisted Nitrosylase (SCAN).
