На основе знаний о функциях оксида азота (NO) в животных тканях обобщены литературные данные о физиологической роли NO у растительных организмов. Подчеркивается многофункциональность NO у различных организмов, обусловленная высокой реакционностью этой молекулы, ее способностью реагировать с белками и низкомолекулярными веществами. Рассмотрены вопросы участия NO в различных физиологических процессах, возможные механизмы синтеза NO у растений, взаимодействие с другими эндогенными молекулами, а также механизмы, предотвращающие токсический эффект NO.
Оксид азота (no), синтаза оксида азота (nos), nos-подобная реакция, нитрозилирование, нитрование белков, нитрозативный стресс
