| UniProt functional annotation for Q01064 | |||
| UniProt code: Q01064. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | 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 preference for cGMP as a substrate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15260978}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=a nucleoside 3',5'-cyclic phosphate + H2O = a nucleoside 5'- phosphate + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:14653, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:57867, ChEBI:CHEBI:58464; EC=3.1.4.17; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=a divalent metal cation; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:60240; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:15260978}; Note=Binds 2 divalent metal cations per subunit. Site 1 may preferentially bind zinc ions, while site 2 has a preference for magnesium and/or manganese ions. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15260978}; | |
| Activity regulation: | Type I PDE are activated by the binding of calmodulin in the presence of Ca(2+). | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family. PDE1 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
