Abstract

The effect of Ca2+ and calmodulin has been studied on adenylate cyclase activity in homogenates of rat islets of Langerhans. EGTA had a stimulatory effect on the enzyme in accord with the known inhibitory effect of Ca2+. In contrast, the addition of Ca2+ together with calmodulin is stimulatory and demonstrates the existence of a Ca2+-dependent adenylate cyclase in islets of Langerhans. It is suggested that the glucose-induced increase in cyclic AMP concentrations in intact islets is a secondary consequence of the glucose-induced increase in cytosol free-Ca2+ concentrations which, with calmodulin, causes an increase in the activity of adenylate cyclase.

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.
