General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | overexpression of soluble guanylate cyclase in melanocytes results in decreased expression of key melanogenic genes including microphthalmia transcription factor, tyrosinase, tyrosinase related protein 1, and tyrosinase related protein 2, both at mRNA and protein level. The melanocytes are capable of producing cGMP and cAMP | Ovis aries |
