A Family of Human Phosphodiesterases Homologous to the Dunce Learning and Memory Gene Product of Drosophila melanogaster are Potential Targets for Antidepressant Drugs
1 Oct 1993
Abstract excerpt
We have isolated cDNAs for four human genes (DPDE1 through DPDE4) closely related to the dnc learning and memory locus of Drosophila melanogaster. The deduced amino acid sequences of the Drosophila and human proteins have considerable homology, extending beyond the putative catalytic region to include two novel, highly conserved, upstream conserved regions (UCR1 and UCR2). The upstream conserved regions are...
