Abstract excerpt
Five protein families are needed to encompass the diversity of cyclic-AMP (cAMP) phosphodiesterases (PDE). Family IV PDEs (PDE IV) specifically hydrolyze cAMP with a low Km, and are selectively inhibited by rolipram (Rp) and related drugs. Cloned cDNAs from rat (r) suggest that the PDE IV family comprises four distinct members, designated A, B, C and D. Using RN from a human lymphocytic B-cell line (43D-Cl2), we...
