S-Nitrosylated proteins identified in guinea pig USM that are involved in contraction/relaxation dynamics

A total of 34 S-nitrosylated proteins were identified that are known to play a role in either cytoskeletal rearrangement or the regulation of contraction/relaxation in smooth muscle tissues, 15 of these are novel targets of S-nitrosylation not previously identified and 20 are selectively S-nitrosylated during pregnancy.
