Abstract excerpt
The physiological effects of cGMP are largely determined by the activities of intracellular receptors, including cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) and cGMP-binding cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs), and the distribution of cGMP among these receptors dictates activity of the signalling pathway. In the present study, the effects of PKG-Ialpha or PKG-Ibeta on the rate of cGMP hydrolysis by the isolated...
