Abstract
The fluorescent 2'-methylanthraniloyl derivative of cyclic GMP undergoes a 45% decrease in fluorescence when it is cleaved by brain phosphodiesterase in the presence of calmodulin. This fluorescence decrease is dependent upon calcium, calmodulin, and phosphodiesterase, and correlates well (r = 0.996) with the disappearance of substrate as monitored by high-performance liquid chromatography. The Kd values determined by this fluorescence method and HPLC suggest that cyclic GMP and its fluorescent derivative exhibit similar kinetic parameters in their hydrolysis.Entities:
