    Abstract:

    Cyclic AMP was not detected (less than 5 X 10(-9) M intracellular concentration) at any stage of growth or sporulation of two strains of Clostridium perfringens grown with or without methylxanthines. Only Bacillus and Lactobacillus, genera belonging to the same phylogenetic cluster, have previously exhibited undetectable levels of cyclic AMP.

    GPCRs Regulate Adenylyl Cylase Activity

    Some GPCRs transmit signals through adenylyl cyclase (AC), a transmembrane enzyme. AC helps synthesize second messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). AC catalyzes cyclization reaction and converts ATP to cAMP by releasing a pyrophosphate. The pyrophosphate is further hydrolyzed to phosphate by the enzyme pyrophosphatase, which drives cAMP synthesis to completion. However, cAMP is rapidly degraded to 5′ AMP by the enzymes phosphodiesterase (PDE), preventing overstimulation of cells.
