Tissue/ activity | Wild type | 669WTAPELL675(+/−) | 669WTAPELL675(−/−) |
---|---|---|---|
Kidney | 42 ± 4 | 40 ± 6 | 41 ± 5 |
Adrenal gland | 78 ± 9 | 75 ± 10 | 81 ± 9 |
COS cells | 23 ± 3 | 22 ± 3 |
The membrane fractions were prepared as described in the Experimental Procedures section. Membranes of the COS cells expressing wild type ANF-RGC and its 669WTAPELL675 deletion mutant were assayed as control. The experiment was done in triplicate and repeated three times with different membrane preparations. The results are mean ± SD from these experiments. The activity is expressed as pmol cyclic GMP min−1 (mg protein)−1.
