Noun
cyclase (plural cyclases)
(biochemistry) Any enzyme that catalyzes the cyclization of a compound
Activation of adenylate cyclase ends when the G protein returns to the GDP -bound state. Source: Internet
Adenylyl cyclase catalyzes the conversion of ATP to 3',5'-cyclic AMP Classes Class I The first class of adenylyl cyclases occur in many bacteria including E. coli. Source: Internet
Gs alpha binds to adenyl cyclase, thus converting ATP into cyclic AMP. Source: Internet
Phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinases Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases ( protein kinase A ) are activated by the signal chain coming from the G protein (that was activated by the receptor) via adenylate cyclase and cyclic AMP (cAMP). Source: Internet
Photoactivatable adenylyl cyclase (PAC) was discovered in E. gracilis and can be expressed in other organisms through genetic manipulation. Source: Internet
Synthesis and decomposition Cyclic AMP is synthesized from ATP by adenylate cyclase located on the inner side of the plasma membrane and anchored at various locations in the interior of the cell. Source: Internet
