The levels of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP during the second cleavage cycle of eggs of Mactra solidissima have been measured. Cyclic GMP levels vary reciprocally with cyclic AMP levels, the cyclic GMP level increasing up to 4 to 5-fold and the cyclic AMP level falling to 50 percent at the onset of mitosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
