Abstract: | Guanylate cyclase has been purified 60-fold from cell extracts of the bacterium . It has a molecular weight of approximately 140,000 and is dependent upon Mn2+ for activity. Enzymic activity is unaffected by cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP or N6,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic AMP but is stimulated by N2,O2′-dibutyryl cyclic GMP. The partially purified preparation of guanylate cyclase does not contain detectable adenylate cyclase activity. |
