cGMP is produced from GTP by the enzyme guanylate cyclase, which exists in soluble and membrane-bound forms. Consider the following statements related to signaling molecules associated with the cGMP signaling cascade: A. Atrial natriuretic factor causes natriuresis and diuresis by interacting with the membrane-bound form of guanylate cyclase. B. Nitroglycerin causes smooth muscle relaxation and vasodilation by interacting with the soluble form of guanylate cyclase. C. Nitroprusside causes smooth muscle relaxation and vasodilation by interacting with the membrane-bound form of guanylate cyclase. D. Atrial natriuretic factor causes natriuresis and diuresis by interacting with the soluble form of guanylate cyclase. Which of the following combinations is correct?
- 1A and D
- 2C and D
