Nitric oxide (NO) enhances human sperm motility and capacitation associated with increased protein phosphorylation. NO activates soluble guanylyl cyclase, but can also modify function covalently via S-nitrosylation of cysteine. Remarkably, this mechanism remains unexplored in although they depend on post-translational modification to achieve changes required for fertilisation. Our objective was identify targets sperm. Spermatozoa were incubated donors S-nitrosylated proteins identified using...
