Reaction: Peroxynitrite oxidizes Peptide-Methionine residues
- in pathway: ROS and RNS production in phagocytes
Within the bacterial cell, peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is able to oxidize methionine residues on peptides, forming methionine sulfoxide residues with itself being reduced to nitrite (NOO-) (Pryor et al. 1994).
