| Background: | Cyclic nucleotides are important intracellular second messengers which play an important role in a variety of signal transduction process. The cyclic nucleotides are hydrolyzed and compartmentalized by a family of enzymes called phosphodiesterases. One of the many phosphodiesterases that compartmentalize and hydrolyze cAMP and cGMP into AMP and GMP is PDE2. Two genes, PDE2A and PDE2B, have been identified and cloned and they both have an apparent molecular weight of 100 kDA. PDE2A has specificity for cAMP and its activity is modulated by the presence of cGMP. In contrast, PDE2B does not hydrolyze cGMP nor its activity is altered by the presence of cGMP. Western blot analyses of PDE2A reveals that it is present in a variety of tissues including neocortex, cerebellum, heart, kidney lungs, pulmonary artery and skeletal muscle. |
