Description

Guanylate cyclases are enzymes that synthesize the intracellular messenger cyclic GMP, which mediates a wide variety of physiological and developmental events. Guanylate cyclases are divided into two classes: the integral membrane receptor guanylate cyclases and the cytoplasmic soluble guanylate cyclases. (Adapted from FBrf0179844).
