FUNCTION: Produces nitric oxide (NO) which is implicated in vascular smooth muscle relaxation through a cGMP-mediated signal transduction pathway. NO mediates vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced angiogenesis in coronary vessels and promotes blood clotting through the activation of platelets. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: L-arginine + n NADPH + n H(+) + m O(2) = citrulline + nitric oxide + n NADP(+). COFACTOR: Heme group. COFACTOR: Binds 1 FAD. COFACTOR: Binds 1 FMN. COFACTOR: Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). May stabilize the dimeric form of the enzyme. ENZYME REGULATION: Stimulated by calcium/calmodulin. Inhibited by NOSIP and NOSTRIN. SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with NOSIP and NOSTRIN. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane. Membrane, caveola. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Golgi apparatus. Note=Specifically associates with actin cytoskeleton in the G2 phase of the cell cycle; which is favored by interaction with NOSIP and results in a reduced enzymatic activity. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Platelets, placenta, liver and kidney. POLYMORPHISM: Variation in NOS3 seem to be associated with susceptibility to coronary spasm. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NOS family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 FAD-binding FR-type domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 flavodoxin-like domain.
