Background： The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) family, and PDE7 subfamily. This PDE hydrolyzes the second messenger, cAMP, which is a regulator and mediator of a number of cellular responses to extracellular signals. Thus, by regulating the cellular concentration of cAMP, this protein plays a key role in many important physiological processes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011],

Function：catalytic activity:Adenosine 3',5'-cyclic phosphate + H(2)O = adenosine 5'-phosphate.,cofactor:Divalent cations.,developmental stage:Developmentally regulated. PDE7A1 and PDE7A2 are found in several fetal tissues, expression is reduced throughout development. It persists strongly only in adult skeletal muscle.,domain:Composed of a C-terminal catalytic domain containing two putative divalent metal sites and an N-terminal regulatory domain.,enzyme regulation:Insensitive to all selective PDE inhibitors.,function:Plays a role in signal transduction by regulating the intracellular concentration of cyclic nucleotides. This phosphodiesterase is highly specific for cAMP and may have a role in muscle signal transduction.,pathway:Purine metabolism; cAMP degradation; AMP from cAMP: step 1/1.,similarity:Belongs to the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family.,subcellular location:PDE7A1 (57 kDa) i
