Structural insights into the regulation and the activation mechanism of mammalian guanylyl cyclases

PADAYATTI, P·2004·Pharmacology & Therapeutics

Abstract

Guanylyl cyclases (GC) are proteins that are essential for the production of the second messenger cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). Mammalian GC have attracted considerable interest due to their roles in important physiological processes such as vasodilation, vision, and bone growth. In addition, their link to disease and concomitant pharmaceutical potential have made these cyclases a long standing target for probing their intriguing mechanism of activation with the aim of drug development. The vasodilatory drugs nitroglycerin and nesiritide act through (different) GC pathways and have both been shown to provide beneficial relief for congestive heart failure patients. New structural insights are recently emerging on the activation mechanism and regulation of these receptors. The aim of this review is to discuss the interesting differences and similarities between members of the soluble and membrane bound GC in detail and put these in context with the structural knowledge that is available to date. These efforts contribute to an enhanced understanding of the GC and will likely lead to an increased success in structure-based therapeutic intervention.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
