Atrial Natriuretic Peptide receptors belong to which of the following type of receptors:

A
G-protein coupled receptors
B
Ligand-gated guanylyl cyclase receptor
C
Tyrosine kinase receptors
D
JAK-STAT receptors
High-Yield Explanation
Natriuretic peptides Natriuretic peptide receptors are Transmembrane ligand-gated guanylyl cyclase receptors. ANP and BNP are selective agonist for A-type natriuretic receptor (NPR-A). CNP is selective agonist for B-type natriuretic receptor (NPR-B). The NPR-C has an extracellular domain similar to those of NPR-A and NPR-B but does not contain the guanylyl cyclase domain.
