摘要
Nitric oxide-sensitive guanylyl cyclase is a heterodimeric enzyme consisting of one alpha and one beta subunit. Here, we clone the first alpha (2) subunit ortholog and functionally express the cDNA in Sf-9 cells. Our data indicate a high degree of conservation of the primary sequence and functional activity of the rat at subunit. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
