About Adcy8

Summary

Enables several functions, including calcium- and calmodulin-responsive Adenylate Cyclase activity; Calmodulin binding activity; and protein dimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; cellular chemical homeostasis; and cellular response to organonitrogen compound. Located in several cellular components, including caveola; clathrin-coated pit; and neuronal cell body membrane. Colocalizes with actin Cytoskeleton. Orthologous to human ADCY8 (Adenylate Cyclase 8).
