PDGF regulates guanylate cyclase expression and cGMP signaling in vascular smooth muscle
PDGF reduces expression of nitric oxide-sensitive soluble guanylyl cyclase (NO-sGC) through PI3K-P-Rex1-Rac1 signaling in vascular smooth muscle cells.

Nucleotidyl cyclase activity of particulate guanylyl cyclase A: comparison with particulate guanylyl cyclases E and F, soluble guanylyl cyclase and bacterial adenylyl cyclases CyaA and edema factor. [PDF]
Guanylyl cyclases (GCs) regulate many physiological processes by catalyzing the synthesis of the second messenger cGMP. The GC family consists of seven particulate GCs (pGCs) and a nitric oxide-activated soluble GC (sGC).

Redox regulation of soluble guanylyl cyclase. [PDF]
The nitric oxide/soluble guanylyl cyclase (NO-sGC) signaling pathway regulates the cardiovascular, neuronal, and gastrointestinal systems. Impaired sGC signaling can result in disease and system-wide organ failure. This review seeks to examine the redox control of sGC through heme and cysteine regulation while discussing therapeutic drugs that target ...

Functional Domains of Soluble Guanylyl Cyclase [PDF]
Soluble guanylyl cyclase is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha and beta subunit and stimulation occurs upon binding of NO to a prosthetic group. Little is known about the localization of catalytic and regulatory domains within the subunits of soluble guanylyl cyclase. We used deletion mutagenesis to identify the regions of alpha 1 and beta 1 subunits

Binding of regulatory subunits of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase to cyclic CMP agarose. [PDF]
The bacterial adenylyl cyclase toxins CyaA from Bordetella pertussis and edema factor from Bacillus anthracis as well as soluble guanylyl cyclase α(1)β(1) synthesize the cyclic pyrimidine nucleotide cCMP.

Nucleotidyl cyclase activity of recombinant soluble guanylyl cyclase [PDF]
The ubiquitously expressed soluble guanylyl cyclase(sGC) converts guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP) to gua-nosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP). The het-erodimeric protein is activated by nitric oxide (NO). sGCplays a key role in the regulation of vascular tone and neu-rotransmission.

Mapping Soluble Guanylyl Cyclase and Protein Disulfide Isomerase Regions of Interaction. [PDF]
Soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) is a heterodimeric nitric oxide (NO) receptor that produces cyclic GMP. This signaling mechanism is a key component in the cardiovascular system.

Maturation, inactivation, and recovery mechanisms of soluble guanylyl cyclase. [PDF]
Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) is a heme-containing heterodimeric enzyme that generates many molecules of cGMP in response to its ligand nitric oxide (NO); sGC thereby acts as an amplifier in NO-driven biological signaling cascades. Because sGC helps regulate the cardiovascular, neuronal, and gastrointestinal systems through its cGMP production ...
