2 L-arginine + 3 NADPH + 3 H+ + 4 O2 Bos taurus NO is an important signalling molecule, released by numerous cells, that acts in many tissues to regulate a diverse range of physiological and biological processes, including neurotransmission, immune defence and the regulation of apoptosis. NO plays a major role in the killing of intracellular pathogens as part of the innate immune response 2 citrulline + 2 nitric oxide + 3 NADP+ + 4 H2O
