Abstract
A comprehensive overview is presented of the biologically relevant coordination chemistry of nitrosyls and its biochemical consequences. Representative classes of metal nitrosyls are introduced along with the structural and bonding aspects that may have consequences for the biological functioning of these complexes. Next, the biological targets and functions of nitrogen (II) oxide are discussed. Up-to-date biochemical applications of metal nitrosyls are reviewed.

Notes
- 1.
According to the definition of IUPAC: A description of the bonding of π-conjugated ligands to a transition metal which involves a synergic process with donation of electrons from the filled π-orbital or lone electron pair orbital of the ligand into an empty orbital of the metal (donor–acceptor bond), together with release (back-donation) of electrons from an nd orbital of the metal (which is of π-symmetry with respect to the metal–ligand axis) into the empty π*-antibonding orbital of the ligand [7].

c-Jun N-terminal kinases – mitogen-activated protein kinases which are responsive to stress stimuli, such as cytokines, ultraviolet irradiation, heat shock, and osmotic shock, and are involved in T cell differentiation and apoptosis. Kinase (phosphotransferase) – a type of enzyme that transfers phosphate groups from high-energy donor molecules, such as ATP, to specific substrates.

Bcl-2–associated X protein (Bax) is a pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 type protein.
