Function Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is a messenger molecule with diverse functions throughout the body. In the brain and peripheral nervous system, NO displays many properties of a neurotransmitter. Probably has nitrosylase activity and mediates cysteine S-nitrosylation of cytoplasmic target proteins such SRR. Isoform NNOS Mu may be an effector enzyme for the dystrophin complex. {ECO:0000269PubMed:17293453}.
Subcellular Localization Cell membrane, sarcolemma; Peripheral membrane protein. Cell projection, dendritic spine {ECO:0000250}. Note=In skeletal muscle, it is localized beneath the sarcolemma of fast-twitch muscle fiber by associating with the dystrophin glycoprotein complex. In neurons, enriched in dendritic spines (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations Note=In MDX mice (mouse model of dystrophinopathy) the dystrophin complex is disrupted and nNOS is displaced from sarcolemma and accumulates in the cytosol.
Tissue Specificity Widely expressed in the nervous system: expressed in cerebrum, olfactory bulb, hippocampus, midbrain, cerebellum, pons, medulla oblongata, and spinal cord. Also found in skeletal muscle, where it is localized beneath the sarcolemma of fast twitch muscle fibers, and in spleen, heart, kidney, and liver. N-NOS-1 and N-NOS-2 are found in all parts of the nervous system. NNOS beta and gamma occur in a region-specific manner in the brain and NNOS beta expression is developmentally regulated. NNOS Mu is only found in mature skeletal and cardiac muscles.
