Background The Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase (AC) isoforms AC1 and AC8, couple NMDA receptor activation to cAMP signaling pathways in neurons and are important for development, learning and memory, drug addiction and persistent pain.

A role for calmodulin-stimulated adenylyl cyclases in cocaine sensitization. [PDF]
Cocaine sensitization is produced by repeated exposure to the drug and is thought to reflect neuroadaptations that contribute to addiction. Here, we identify the Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated adenylyl cyclases, type 1 (AC1) and type 8 (AC8), as novel ...

Regulation of prokaryotic adenylyl cyclases by CO2. [PDF]
The Slr1991 adenylyl cyclase of the model prokaroyte Synechocystis PCC 6803 was stimulated 2-fold at 20 mM total C(i) (inorganic carbon) at pH 7.5 through an increase in k(cat).

Effects of 39 Compounds on Calmodulin-Regulated Adenylyl Cyclases AC1 and Bacillus anthracis Edema Factor. [PDF]
Adenylyl cyclases (ACs) catalyze the conversion of ATP into the second messenger cAMP. Membranous AC1 (AC1) is involved in processes of memory and learning and in muscle pain.

Regulation of Adenylyl Cyclase by Membrane Potential [PDF]
Mammalian adenylyl cyclases possess 12 transmembrane-spanning domains and bear a superficial resemblance to certain classes of ion channels. Some evidence suggests that bacterial and sea urchin sperm adenylyl cyclases can be regulated by membrane depolarization. In the present study, we explored the effect of altering membrane potential on the adenylyl

Adenylyl cyclases types 1 and 8 promote pro-survival pathways after ethanol exposure in the neonatal brain [PDF]
Although a wide range of developmental disabilities following fetal alcohol exposure are observed clinically, the molecular factors that determine the severity of these sequelae remain undefined. In mice exposed to ethanol, deletion of adenylyl cyclases (
