Gene name Adenylate cyclase 8
Gene symbol ADCY8
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AC8ADCY3HBAC1
Chromosome 8
Chromosome location 8q24.22
Summary Adenylate cyclase is a membrane bound enzyme that catalyses the formation of cyclic AMP from ATP. The enzymatic activity is under the control of several hormones, and different polypeptides participate in the transduction of the signal from the receptor t
