Gene information for PDE4A (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5141
Official gene symbolPDE4A
Full namephosphodiesterase 4A, cAMP-specific (phosphodiesterase E2 dunce homolog, Drosophila)
Aliases,DPDE2,PDE4,PDE46,
Gene summaryCyclic nucleotides are important second messengers that regulate and mediate a number of cellular responses to extracellular signals, such as hormones, light, and neurotransmitters. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) regulate the cellular concentrations of cyclic nucleotides and thereby play a role in signal transduction. PDE4A is a class IV cAMP-specific PDE (summary by Milatovich et al., 1994 [PubMed 8009369]).[supplied by OMIM]
