Bacterial Adenylyl Cyclases

1993
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the enzyme (adenylyl cyclase) that effect the synthesis of Adenosine 3’,5’-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) in various bacterial species. The content will rather reflect current major interests. The adenylyl cyclase from Escherichia coli has been a major subject of research interest ever since it was identified as ...

Plastic Adenylyl Cyclase

American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 1999
Signal transduction via receptors that couple to guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G proteins) is pervasive throughout eukaryotic and prokaryotic biology. In humans, there are thought to be thousands of different G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), which carry out an amazingly diverse array of signaling, such as odorant detection, phototransduction,

Dexras1 inhibits adenylyl cyclase

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2004
Dexras1 is a steroid hormone-induced Ras family G protein that acts as a receptor-independent activator of signaling by Gi/o family heterotrimeric G proteins. We examined the effects of Dexras1 on the activity of adenylyl cylase, a target of inhibitory regulation by Gialpha x GTP.

Why Calcium-Stimulated Adenylyl Cyclases?

Physiology, 2004
The Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated adenylyl cyclases, AC1 and AC8, play a critical role in several forms of neuroplasticity, including long-lasting long-term potentiation (L-LTP) and long-term memory (LTM). By coupling neuronal activity and Ca2+increases to the production of cAMP, AC1 and AC8 activate cAMP-dependent signal transduction and transcriptional ...

Adenylyl and Guanylyl Cyclase Assays

Current Protocols in Pharmacology, 2005
AbstractThis unit presents two basic protocols to determine adenylyl cyclase and guanylyl cyclase activity in tissue and cell homogenates, permeabilized cells, or subcellular fractions. Each method is divided into two parts: the enzyme reaction that causes the formation of the labeled cyclic nucleotide, and the separation of cyclic nucleotide products ...

The adenylyl cyclase family

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1991
Hormone-sensitive adenylyl cyclase is a model system for the study of receptor-mediated signal transduction. It is comprised of three types of components: 1) receptors for hormones that regulate cyclic AMP (cAMP) synthesis, 2) regulatory GTP binding proteins (G proteins), and 3) the family of enzymes, the adenylyl cyclases.

Photoaffinity Labeling of Adenylyl Cyclase

2002
Photoaffinity is an effective tool to covalently tag amino acid residues that are in or near ligand-binding sites. The polypeptide chains that contribute to the binding site of a given receptor can be identified by sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) if they are specifically labeled with a radioactive marker ...

Purification of Soluble Adenylyl Cyclase

2002
Cyclic AMP (cAMP), the nearly universal second messenger, is synthesized by a broad family of adenylyl cyclases (ACs). Mammals have at least nine isoforms of transmembrane-spanning adenylyl cyclases (tmACs). These differ in their expression patterns, and their catalytic activities are differentially regulated by G proteins and other signaling molecules.
