Inhibition of guanylate cyclase by guanosine 3'-phosphate and 2'-deoxyguanosine 3'-phosphate in silkworm fat body.
Guanosine 3'-phosphate and 2'-deoxyguanosine 3'-phosphate are potent inhibitors of guanylate cyclase of various tissues of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. The inhibitory activity is specific for guanine 3'-nucleotides. Thus, 2'-GMP and 5'-GMP are one order or more less potent than 3'-GMP, and the other 3'-nucleotides except 3'-IMP, i.e. 3'-AMP, 2'-deoxy-3'-AMP, 3'-CMP, and 3'-TMP, have no inhibitory activity. Guanosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine are only weakly active. The 3'-nucleotide inhibition is dependent on the concentration of Mn2+. The concentrations of 2'-deoxy-3'-GMP and 3'-GMP required for 50% inhibition are 0.12 and 0.15 mM, respectively, with 5 mM Mn2+.
