General description
N-terminal GST-tagged 126 kDa full-length protein
Research area: Cell SignallingPDE5is located in various tissues such as the kidney, brain, lungs, cardiac myocytes,vascular smooth muscle cells, penile corpus cavernosum, platelets, andgastrointestinal tissues.[1]
Biochem/physiol Actions
PDE5 regulates vascular smooth muscle contraction and is involved in NO-cGMP signaling in platelets to control aggregation. PDE5 may also be involved in the regulation of cGMP signaling in the brain and may modulate pressure-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis [2]. Phosphodiesterase (PDE)is an enzyme that is used to break phosphodiester bonds. Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5), amolecular target for the treatment of erectile dysfunction and pulmonaryhypertension. PDE5 is used to find novel PDE5 inhibitors. PDE5 specifically targets cyclicguanosine monophosphate (cGMP) generated by the activation of nitric oxide (NO). PDE5 regulates cGMP signalingin the cardiovascular and other tissues. At the genetic level PDE5 isexpressed as various isoforms and undergoes phosphorylation as a post-translationalmodification that results in its activation. PDE5 is degraded through theubiquitin pathway due to its nitrosylation.[1]

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are enzymes that regulate the cellular levels of the second messengers, cAMP and cGMP, by controlling their rates of degradation. There are 11 different PDE families, with each family typically having several different isoforms and splice

Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) is one of the most well-studied phosphodiesterases (PDEs) that specifically targets cGMP typically generated by nitric oxide (NO)-mediated activation of the soluble guanylyl cyclase. Given the crucial role of cGMP generated through the activation of this cellular
