Abstract

Mammalian adenylyl cyclases are functionally expressed in yeast cells. The yeast cells may be used to screen for inhibitors or activators of the adenylyl cyclase, or of a regulator of adenylyl cyclase which is functionally co-expressed in the yeast cell. Methods of identifying such inhibitors, activators and regulators are also disclosed.
