GENE - CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS REPORT

RGD ID: 3186
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Nos3
Name: nitric oxide synthase 3
Acc ID: CHEBI:28787
Term: nitroglycerin
Definition: A nitroglycerol that is glycerol in which the hydrogen atoms of all three hydroxy groups are replaced by nitro groups. It acts as a prodrug, releasing nitric oxide to open blood vessels and so alleviate heart pain.
Chemical ID: MESH:D005996
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
