Endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS) is regulated in part through specific protein
interactions. Dynamin-2 is a large GTPase residing within similar membrane compartments
as eNOS. Here we show that dynamin-2 binds directly with eNOS thereby augmenting
eNOS activity. Double label confocal immunofluorescence demonstrates colocalization of
eNOS and dynamin in both Clone 9 cells cotransfected with green fluorescent protein-
dynamin and eNOS, as well as in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC) expressing both …
