It was discovered independently by Leon Heppel and David Lipkin and its creation suggested a route for biosynthesis. It is formed from another, better-known molecule by the action of adenylate cyclase and is destroyed by a specific phosphodiesterase, which hydrolizes it. Its concentration in animal cells is directly proportional to their biological response to hormonal stimulation and it acts as a second messenger for many hormones. FTP, identify this molecule, synthesized from ATP by the addition of barium hydroxide.
