In March, 2011, there are 13 entries in the [[PDB]] containing coordinates for 3-nitrotyrosine (meta-nitro-tyrosine), with the [[Non-Standard_Residues|compound ID]] '''NIY'''. These include six sequence-distinct proteins, represented by ribonucleotide reductase [[2xof]] and [[2xap]], laccase [[3div]], Human Manganese Superoxide Dismutase [[2adp]], Human Glutathione Reductase [[1k4q]], and bovine Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase [[1sda]]. Not surprisingly, the NO<sub>2</sub> adduct, being very hydrophilic, is often on the surface of the protein. | In March, 2011, there are 13 entries in the [[PDB]] containing coordinates for 3-nitrotyrosine (meta-nitro-tyrosine), with the [[Non-Standard_Residues|compound ID]] '''NIY'''.
