Amidative peptide processing provides intrinsic basal activation of nitric oxide synthase in endothelial cells, linking peptide processing to vasodilation.

Rat aortic relaxation data do not inform clinical vasodilation; leaves open amidative processing as a regulator of basal endothelial NOS.
Oldham et al. (1997) studied this question.
