ADCY6Adenylyl cyclase type 6 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ADCY6 gene.FunctionThis gene encodes adenylyl cyclase 6, which is a membrane-associated enzyme and catalyzes the formation of the secondary messenger cyclic [adenosine monophosphate]. The expression of this gene is found in normal thyroid and brain tissues, as well as some tumors; and its expression is significantly higher in one hyperfunctioning thyroid tumor than in normal thyroid tissue. Alternative splicing generates 2 transcript variants.
