The Protein Kinase Domain of the ANP Receptor Is Required for Signaling
A plasma membrane form of guanylate cyclase is a cell surface receptor for atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). In response to ANP binding, the receptor-enzyme produces increased a...
Neutral Endopeptidase Inhibition: Augmented Atrial and Brain Natriuretic Peptide, Haemodynamic and Natriuretic Responses in Ovine Heart Failure
1. Atrial and brain natriuretic peptide are both circulating hormones subject to degradation by neutral endopeptidase 24.11. Whereas endogenous levels of atrial natriuretic pept...
Biochemical Mechanisms Underlying Vascular Smooth Muscle Relaxation
Several classes of vasodilators have been demonstrated to elicit their affects by activating guanylate cyclase and elevating intracellular concentrations of cyclic GMP. The nitr...
Orphanin FQ: A Neuropeptide That Activates an Opioidlike G Protein-Coupled Receptor
A heptadecapeptide was identified and purified from porcine brain tissue as a ligand for an orphan heterotrimeric GTP- binding protein (G protein)- coupled receptor (LC132) that...
