abstractText | cGMP-dependent protein kinases I and II conduct signals from widespread signaling systems. Whereas the type I kinase mediates numerous effects of natriuretic peptides and nitric oxide in cardiovascular cells, the type II kinase transduces signals from the Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin, STa, and from the endogenous intestinal peptide, guanylin, stimulating Cl- conductance of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Although the two kinases may be interchangeable for several functions, CFTR regulation specifically requires the type II kinase. |
