Identification and expression analysis of nitric oxide synthase gene, Mj NOS, in kuruma shrimp Marsupenaeus japonicus

Nitric oxide (NO) signaling is involved in many physiological processes in vertebrates and invertebrates. In mammals, NO plays as an endothelium-derived relaxing factor in the form of a simple unstable gas, as a neurotransmitter in the central and peripheral nervous systems and as an immune effector...
