Can the night-time atmospheric oxidant NO*3 damage aromatic amino acids?

Duanne C E Sigmund1, Uta Wille.   

Abstract

Reaction of nitrate radicals, NO*3 , with aromatic amino acids leads to irreversible oxidative functionalization at the beta-position or at the aromatic ring, suggesting that this important atmospheric oxidant could potentially cause damage to peptides lining the respiratory tract and may contribute to pollution-derived diseases.
