Vascular Bioactivation of Nitroglycerin by Aldehyde Dehydrogenase-2: REACTION INTERMEDIATES REVEALED BY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY AND MASS SPECTROMETRY

Aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) catalyzes the bioactivation of nitroglycerin (glyceryl trinitrate, GTN) in blood vessels, resulting in vasodilation by nitric oxide (NO) or a related species. Because the mechanism of this reaction is still unclear we determined the three-dimensional structures of wi...
