Adcy9 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables adenylate cyclase activity. Acts upstream of or within adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; cAMP biosynthetic process; and in utero embryonic development. Located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Orthologous to human ADCY9 (adenylate cyclase 9).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Adcy9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Membrane-associating domain
  • adenylate cyclase
  • Class III nucleotidyl cyclases
  • enzyme
  • protein binding
  • Adenylyl- / guanylyl cyclase, catalytic domain
  • C1 domain (from adenylate cyclase)
  • C2 domain (from adenylate cyclase)
