Background: The adenylate cyclase 3 (ADCY3) gene encodes a membrane-associated protein involved in the formation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) from adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This gene seems to be is involved in the regulation of several metabolic processes and has been recently associated to pathophysiological metabolic conditions. Several ADCY3 variants have been linked with obesity in children.M...
