Rabbit anti-Human PDE1C Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q14123

Target Species

Human

Target Name

PDE1C

Target Full Name

Dual specificity calcium/calmodulin-dependent 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 1C

Target Function

Calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase with a dual-specificity for the second messengers cAMP and cGMP, which are key regulators of many important physiological processes. Has a high affinity for both cAMP and cGMP. Modulates the amplitude and duration of the cAMP signal in sensory cilia in response to odorant stimulation, hence contributing to the generation of action potentials. Regulates smooth muscle cell proliferation. Regulates the stability of growth factor receptors, including PDGFRB (Probable).

Target Protein Families

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family, PDE1 subfamily

Target Tissue Specificity

Isoform PDE1C2 is present in the heart and brain and, at lower levels in the lung, liver, kidney and skeletal muscle. Isoform PDE1C1 is expressed in the heart and brain and, at lower levels in lung. Also expressed at low levels in uterus and testis.

Target Background

This gene encodes an enzyme that belongs to the 3'5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family. Members of this family catalyze hydrolysis of the cyclic nucleotides, cyclic adenosine monophosphate and cyclic guanosine monophosphate, to the corresponding nucleoside 5'-monophosphates. The enzyme encoded by this gene regulates proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells, and neointimal hyperplasia. This enzyme also plays a role in pathological vascular remodeling by regulating the stability of growth factor receptors, such as PDGF-receptor-beta.
