Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Adenylate cyclase activity in rat striatum decreased post mortem. Half-lives were about 2.7 h at 22°C, 72 h at 4°C. Differences in stability after death of adenylate cyclase in human brain and rat striatum, and possible heterogenity of the enzyme, are briefly discussed.
