Abstract
Nitric oxide is a signal molecule with pleiotropic effects in higher plants. Significant numbers of these effects are exerted through post-translational modifications (PTMs) mediated by nitric oxide-derived reactive nitrogen species under physiological and stress conditions. Among these PTMs, nitration and S-nitrosylation are the most thoroughly studied in higher plants. In addition, the identification of new protein targets of these PTMs in plant cells such as ascorbate peroxidase (APX) demonstrates the interrelationship between the metabolism of ROS and RNS. This chapter will review recent aspects concerning these PMTs during plant development and under environmental stress conditions.
