Broader concept

Entry terms

  • Cyclic Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase PDE4 Family
  • PDE4 Phosphodiesterases
  • Phosphodiesterase 4
  • Phosphodiesterase-4
  • Phosphodiesterase IV
  • Phosphodiesterases, PDE4
  • Type 4 Cyclic Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase

Scope note

  • A cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase subfamily that is found predominantly in inflammatory cells and may play a role in the regulation of CELL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY. The enzyme family includes over twenty different variants that occur due to multiple ALTERNATIVE SPLICING of the mRNA of at least four different genes.

History note

  • 2008(1981)
