Structure of dog adenylyl cyclase 5 (grey), rat adenylyl cyclase 2 (green), bovine guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit α (pink) complex with ADP derivative (stick model), GDP derivative (stick model), methylpiperazinoforskolin, Ca+2, Mg+2 and Cl- ions (PDB code 3maa).
The cAMP-dependent pathway, also known as the adenylyl cyclase pathway, is a G protein-coupled receptor-triggered signaling cascade used in cell communication.
