Abstract excerpt
All mammalian cGMP-dependent protein kinases (PKGs) are dimeric. Dimerization of PKGs involves sequences located near the amino termini, which contain a conserved, extended leucine zipper motif. In PKG Ibeta this includes eight Leu/Ile heptad repeats, and in the present study, deletion and site-d...
