The transport of cyclic nucleotides out of the cell is energy requiring, dependent on ATP- hydrolysis. The ability to stimulate this ATPase is a hallmark of substrates for ABC-transporters e.g. ABCC5, ABCC4. It is believed that ABCC5 transporter has selective high affinity for cGMP. Previous studies support the idea that ABCC5 contribute to cGMP transport by human erythrocytes. Human erythrocyte ...
