ADCY8

Adenylate cyclase type 8 is an is_associated_with::enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ADCY8 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
is_associated_with::Adenylate cyclase is a membrane bound enzyme that catalyses the formation of is_associated_with::cyclic AMP from ATP. The enzymatic activity is under the control of several hormones, and different polypeptides participate in the transduction of the signal from the receptor to the catalytic moiety. Stimulatory or inhibitory receptors (Rs and Ri) interact with is_associated_with::G proteins (Gs and Gi) that exhibit is_associated_with::GTPase activity and they modulate the activity of the catalytic subunit of the adenylyl cyclase.
