Peroxynitrite (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Reactive Nitrogen Species, Oxidant
01

Overview

Peroxynitrite (ONOO⁻) is a potent oxidant and nitrating agent formed by the reaction of nitric oxide and superoxide. It reacts with biomolecules, causing cellular damage through lipid peroxidation, protein tyrosine nitration, DNA strand breaks, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Peroxynitrite is implicated in various disease processes, including inflammation, atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiovascular disorders.
