Gene:
adenylate cyclase 2 (brain)
Gene ID:
207841
Symbol:
ADCY2
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene encodes a member of the family of adenylate cyclases, which are membrane-associated enzymes that catalyze the formation of the secondary messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). This enzyme is insensitive to Ca(2+)/calmodulin, and is stimulated by the G protein beta and gamma subunit complex. It is expressed in brain.
