Phosphodiesterase enzymes have been shown to be different in different types of cells, including normal and leukemic lymphocytes [11] and are often targets for pharmacological inhibition due to their unique tissue distribution, structural properties, and functional properties. [12]
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) family, and PDE4 subfamily. This PDE hydrolyzes the secondary messenger, cAMP, which is a regulator and mediator of a number of cellular responses to extracellular signals.
PDE6A encodes the cyclic-GMP specific phosphodiesterase 6A alpha subunit, expressed in cells of the retinal rod outer segment. The phosphodiesterase 6 holoenzyme is a heterotrimer composed of an alpha, beta, and two gamma subunits. cGMP is an important regulator of rod cell membrane current, and its dynamic concentration is established by ...
Phosphodiesterase 1, PDE1, EC 3.1.4.1, systematic name oligonucleotide 5 ′-nucleotidohydrolase) is a phosphodiesterase enzyme also known as calcium- and calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase. It is one of the 11 families of phosphodiesterase (PDE1-PDE11).
Dual 3',5'-cyclic-AMP and -GMP phosphodiesterase 11A is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PDE11A gene. [4] [5]The 3',5'-cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP function as second messengers in a wide variety of signal transduction pathways. 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) catalyze the hydrolysis of cAMP and cGMP to the corresponding 5'-monophosphates and provide a mechanism ...
PDE3 is a phosphodiesterase. The PDEs belong to at least eleven related gene families, which are different in their primary structure, substrate affinity, responses to effectors, and regulation mechanism. Most of the PDE families are composed of more than one gene.
At least four types of the enzyme phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) are known: PDE4A; PDE4B; PDE4C; PDE4D; See also. 3',5'-cyclic-AMP phosphodiesterase; Phosphodiesterase (PDE)
Rod cGMP-specific 3',5'-cyclic phosphodiesterase subunit beta is the beta subunit of the protein complex PDE6 that is encoded by the PDE6B gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] PDE6 is crucial in transmission and amplification of visual signal.
