Heat-stable enterotoxins (STa), which cause an acute secretory diarrhea, have been suggested to mediate their actions through the guanylyl cyclase-C (GC-C) receptor. The GC-C gene was disrupted by insertion of neo into exon 1 and subsequent homologous recombination. GC-C null mice contained no detectable GC-C protein. Intestine mucosal guanylyl cyclase activity was approximately 16-fold higher ...
Infection with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli is a leading cause of traveler's diarrhea. Many enterotoxigenic E. coli strains produce heat-stable enterotoxin (ST), a peptide that binds to the intestinal receptor guanylyl cyclase C known as STaR. The toxin-receptor interaction elevates intracellular cGMP, which then activates apical chloride secretion, resulting in secretory diarrhea. In this ...
The adenylyl and guanylyl cyclases catalyze the formation of 3', 5'-cyclic adenosine or guanosine monophosphate from the corresponding nucleoside 5'-triphosphate. The guanylyl cyclases, the mammalian adenylyl cyclases, and their microbial homologues function as pairs of homologous catalytic domains. The crystal structure of the rat type II adenylyl cyclase C2 catalytic domain was used to model ...
We cloned a guanylyl cyclase of 280 kDa from the ciliate Paramecium which has an N-terminus similar to that of a P-type ATPase and a C-terminus with a topology identical to mammalian adenylyl cyclases. Respective signature sequence motifs are conserved in both domains. The cytosolic catalytic C1a and C2a segments of the cyclase are inverted. Genes coding for topologically identical proteins wit...
Cytosolic guanylyl cyclases (GTP pyrophosphate-lyase [cyclizing; EC 4.6.1.2]), primary receptors for nitric oxide (NO) generated by NO synthases, are obligate heterodimers consisting of an alpha and a beta subunit. The alpha1/beta1 form of guanylyl cyclase has the greatest activity and is considered the universal form. An isomer of the beta1 subunit, i.e., beta2, has been detected in the liver ...
In the human genome, sequence analysis indicates there are five functional transmembrane guanylyl cyclases, enzymes that synthesize the intracellular second messenger, cGMP. Two, GC-A and GC-B or NPR-A and NPR-B, are widely distributed receptors for atrial natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide and C-type natriuretic peptide, more commonly known as ANP, BNP and CNP, respectively. One cy...
The Ca(2+)-dependent activation of retina-specific guanylyl cyclase (retGC) is mediated by guanylyl cyclase-activating proteins (GCAPs). Here we report for the first time detection of a 19 kDa protein (p19) with GCAP properties in extracts of rat retina and pineal gland. Both extracts stimulate synthesis of cGMP in rod outer segment (ROS) membranes at low (30 nM) but not at high (1 microM) conc...
In Dictyostelium discoideum extracellular cAMP induces chemotaxis via a transmembrane signal transduction cascade consisting of surface cAMP receptors, G-proteins and effector enzymes including adenylyl cyclase, guanylyl cyclase and phospholipase C. Previously it was demonstrated that some cAMP derivatives such as 3'-deoxy-3'-aminoadenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (3'NH-cAMP) bind to the receptor a...
