Unless otherwise stated all data on this page refer to the human proteins. Gene information is provided for human (Hs), mouse (Mm) and rat (Rn).
The mammalian genome encodes seven transmembrane guanylyl cyclases, GC-A to GC-G, that are homodimeric receptors activated by a diverse range of endogenous ligands. These enzymes also convert guanosine-5'-triphosphate to the intracellular second messenger cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP).
