N’-Nitro-D-arginine（Cat No.:I043248）is a modified form of the amino acid D-arginine, where a nitro group is attached to the nitrogen atom at the N’-position. This compound is often used in research to study the role of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and its effects on cellular signaling. The nitro modification mimics the role of nitric oxide in inhibiting enzymes like nitric oxide synthases (NOS), which are involved in NO production. N’-Nitro-D-arginine is valuable in studies related to vascular function, cardiovascular health, and nitric oxide’s involvement in various physiological processes.
