  5. Atrial natriuretic peptide receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_natriuretic_peptide...

    ANP activation of the ANP catalytic receptor will stimulate its intracellular guanylyl cyclase activity to convert GTP to cGMP. cGMP will then stimulate cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG), which will then induce smooth muscle relaxation. This is particularly important in the vasculature, where vascular smooth muscle will bind ANP released as a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrial_natriuretic_peptide

    ANP is a 28-amino acid peptide with a 17-amino acid ring in the middle of the molecule. The ring is formed by a disulfide bond between two cysteine residues at positions 7 and 23. ANP is closely related to BNP (brain natriuretic peptide) and CNP (C-type natriuretic peptide), which all share a similar amino acid ring structure. ANP is one of a ...

    The human gene that makes ANP is called NPPA, and it's on chromosome 1 at location 1p36.21. The gene is about two kilobases long and has three parts called exons and two called introns. The mRNA from this gene makes a protein called preproANP with 151 parts called amino acids. [3]
