Guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate, known as cyclic guanosine monophosphate or cGMP, is a cyclic nucleotide derived from guanosine triphosphate (GTP). cGMP acts as a secondary messenger in various biological processes, playing a role in signal transduction pathways within cells. cGMP is synthesized from GTP by the action of guanylate cyclase enzymes. There are two main types of guanylate cyclases: soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), which is activated by nitric oxide (NO), and membrane-bound guanylate cyclase (mGC), which is activated by natriuretic peptides such as atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). Once produced, cGMP exerts its effects by activating specific protein kinases, known as cGMP-dependent protein kinases, or by modulating the activity of cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels and phosphodiesterases, which are enzymes responsible for the degradation of cGMP.
