Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Guanylyl cyclase that catalyzes synthesis of cyclic GMP (cGMP) from GTP (PubMed:11950846, PubMed:1718270, PubMed:22436048, PubMed:22521417, PubMed:23269669). Receptor for the E.coli heat-stable enterotoxin; E.coli enterotoxin markedly stimulates the accumulation of cGMP in mammalian cells expressing GUCY2C (PubMed:1680854, PubMed:1718270). Also activated by the endogenous peptides guanylin and uroguanylin (PubMed:8381596).
