Abstract
The conversion of L-arginine to citrulline together with the oxidation of L-cysteine with near UV light of an iron-porphyrin in aqueous solution in the presence of L-cysteine which appears to be necessary for the process to occur: the NO3- detection indicates that NO is formed and allows one to conclude that the reaction mechanism presents interesting analogies with that of the in vivo production of NO.File in questo prodotto:
