Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate 3'-5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate or Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate, a second messenger that mediates the action of several eptide or amine hormones, is abbreviated as cyclic AMP or cAMP. cAMP is thus vital for varied biological processes and used for intracellular signal transduction in various organisms. This major communicator is a result of the action of the enzyme adenyl cyclase on ATP. As such, cyclic AMP performs many physiological functions and is also responsible for increasing blood glucose levels. Adrenaline that enhances blood sugar levels in the body is able to do so by stimulating cAMP production. Cyclic AMP plays an important role in the following: urine regulation synthesis of flagellar proteins in bacteria hormone release sensory and nerve processes Apart from these functions, it also helps in breakdown of lipids in some organisms to produce energy in the absence of sufficient glucose.
