Cyclic guanosine monophosphate
====================================
Landing page for cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).
cGMP is an integral messenger, for pathways involved with vascular smooth muscle relaxation.
This model is derived from `Yang et. al <https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15833804/>`_
Model
===================
The below image shows the bond graph diagram of the formation of cGMP from GTP.
