Description
Description
Receptor guanylate cyclases are single-pass transmembrane receptors with an extracellular ligand-binding domain and intracellular guanylate cyclase and pseudokinase kinase domains. Ligand binding results in the activation of the intracellular guanylyl cyclase domain and the production of cyclic GMP from GTP. The kinase domain may have a regulatory role and may bind ATP. (Adapted from FBrf0228387).
Notes on Group

The Gyc76C and CG42637 transcription units are completely duplicated in the iso-1 reference strain genome. The duplication is a polymorphic variant that is present in the sequenced strain, but does not exist in other D.melanogaster strains (FBrf0211329).
