Names

Common Name: ADCY9 Type: Gene
Chromosome: 16 (NC_000016.10) Locus: NG_011434.1 (ADCY9)
HUGO Symbol: ADCY9 Full Name: adenylate cyclase 9
Exons: 11 Introns: 10

Description:
ADCY9 encodes a membrane-bound member of the guanylyl cyclase family of enzymes. The encoded protein belongs to class IV adenylyl cyclases that catalyse the conversion of ATP to cyclic AMP (cAMP) in response to signals from plasma membrane-bound G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). ADCY9 is part of the signalling pathway of the β2-adrenergic GPCR. cAMP signals to downstream effectors, such as protein kinase A, which activate other kinase cascades that in turn modulate the activity of multiple downstream proteins. Polymorphisms in this gene associated with stroke in sickle cell patients.
