PDE7A Polyclonal Antibody

catalytic activity:Adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate + H(2)O = adenosine 5'-phosphate.,cofactor:Divalent cations.,developmental stage:Developmentally regulated. PDE7A1 and PDE7A2 are found in several fetal tissues, expression is reduced throughout development. It persists strongly only in adult skeletal muscle.,domain:Composed of a C-terminal catalytic domain containing two putative divalent metal sites and an N-terminal regulatory domain.,enzyme regulation:Insensitive to all selective PDE inhibitors.,function:Plays a role in signal transduction by regulating the intracellular concentration of cyclic nucleotides. This phosphodiesterase is highly specific for cAMP and may have a role in muscle signal transduction.,pathway:Purine metabolism; cAMP degradation; AMP from cAMP: step 1/1.,similarity:Belongs to the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family.,subcellular location:PDE7A1 (57 kDa) is located mostly to soluble cellular fractions. PDE7A2 (50 kDa) is located to particulate cellular fractions.,subunit:Interacts with CBFA2T3.,tissue specificity:PDE7A1 is found at high levels in skeletal muscle and at low levels in a variety of tissues including brain and heart. It is expressed as well in two T-cell lines. PDE7A2 is found abundantly in skeletal muscle and at low levels in heart.,
