The adenylate cyclase receptor complex and aqueous humor formation. [PDF]
The secretory tissue of the eye, the ciliary processes, contains an enzyme receptor complex, composed of membrane proteins, the catalytic moiety of the enzyme adenylate cyclase, a guanyl nucleotide regulatory protein (or N protein), and other features ...

Soluble guanylyl cyclase α1 subunit is a key mediator of proliferation, survival, and migration in ECC-1 and HeLa cell lines [PDF]
Soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) is a heterodimeric enzyme constituted by two subunits, α1 and β1. Previously we have shown that 17β-estradiol (E2) exerts opposite effects on these subunits by increasing α1 and decreasing both β1 expression and enzymatic ...

Regioselective Hydration of Terpenes with Cofactor‐Independent Carotenoid 1,2‐Hydratase
This study reveals a highly regioselective and cofactor‐independent enzymatic approach to terpene and terpenoid hydration using a carotenoid 1,2‐hydratase from Rubrivivax gelatinosus. Beyond detailing reaction optimization strategies, an extensive substrate scope, and scale‐up potential, it explores mutagenesis and structural modeling to identify key ...

Many hormones interact with their target cells by binding to receptors located on the external surface of the target cells' plasma membrane and subsequently stimulating the enzyme, adenyl cyclase, which is located within the plasma membrane. Stimulation of adenyl cyclase results in formation of cyclic AMP which is released from the membrane into the ...

Guanylate cyclase C as a target for prevention, detection, and therapy in colorectal cancer. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Colorectal cancer remains the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States, and new strategies to prevent, detect, and treat the disease are needed.

The tissue and functional benefits are demonstrated with local, sustained delivery of an anti‐inflammatory peptide, pituitary adenylate cyclase‐activating polypeptide (PACAP), for stroke treatment in a mouse model. Prolonged PACAP treatment modulated astrocyte and microglia toward pro‐reparative phenotypes, enhanced neuroprotection and preservation of ...

Rhodopsin-cyclases for photocontrol of cGMP/cAMP and 2.3 Å structure of the adenylyl cyclase domain
Cyclic AMP and cGMP orchestrate a variety of cellular responses. Here, authors characterize the cGMP producing rhodopsin-guanylyl cyclase from C. anguillulae and derived adenylyl cyclase by a biochemical and structural approach which demonstrates the ...
