These analyses imply that the proper size of the β7-β8 loop in the second subunit of HIV-1 RT is important for the formation of a stable dimeric enzyme.
Though SGC α-subunits lack the histidine, the region encompassing the HNOB domain in human SGC1α has been shown to be important for functional heme binding by the dimeric enzyme [ 28 ] . Hence, in addition to covalent heme binding, HNOB domains may also interact with it non-covalently.
These results imply that the β7-β8 loop of the second subunit of HIV-1 RT is critical in forming functionally active dimeric enzyme.
NO is released by a cell through the action of the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) on its substrate, the amino acid arginine [ 20 ] . NO diffuses through the neighboring cells and elicits its functions by activating a soluble guanylyl cyclase (SGC) that synthesizes cGMP using GTP as a substrate [ 16 18 ] . The animal SGCs are dimeric enzymes comprised of two homologous subunits, α and β.
However, such primordial di-protomeric AAA polypeptides would have to have been simpler than those present in NSF, ClpA and p97 and other AAA proteins of the current era, for the latter assemble into two-tiered hexameric assemblies, with the axis joining the two protomers in each polypeptide oriented perpendicular to the plane of the hexameric ring [ 14 ] . We cannot, at present, exclude an alternative model for midasin structure in which the hexameric AAA ring assembly is a dimeric two-layered structure formed by two midasin polypeptides arranged laterally with all six odd-numbered protomers in one layer and all six even-numbered protomers in the other.
