General description
The enzyme nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) is involved in the production of nitric oxide.
Application
Spermidine has been used:
- in the preparation of 5x transcription buffer
- in the treatment of double-stranded RNA along with other reagents to increase the uptake of dsRNA by nematodes
- as a standard in the analytical study of rat brain polyamines (185)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Inhibits neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). Binds and precipitates DNA; may be used for purification of DNA binding proteins. Stimulates T4 polynucleotide kinase activity.
Caution
Solutions should be sterile-filtered, not autoclaved, if sterile solution is necessary. Spermidine deaminates with time; solutions should be stored frozen. Prepare new solutions frequently.
Other Notes
Store under inert gas. Air sensitive; strongly hygroscopic.
