PDE4D

PDE4D is one of four mammalian counterparts to the fruit fly 'dunce' gene. The encoded protein has 3',5'-cyclic-AMP phosphodiesterase activity and degrades cAMP, which acts as a signal transduction molecule in multiple cell types. This gene uses different promoters to generate multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode functional proteins.

Phosphodiesterase 4D

Hydrolyzes the second messenger cAMP, which is a key regulator of many important physiological processes.

Found in the soluble fraction, associated with membranes, and associated with the cytoskeleton and the centrosome (By similarity).
Colocalized with SHANK2 to the apical membrane of colonic crypt cells.

Acrodysostosis 2, with or without hormone resistance (ACRDYS2):
A pleiotropic disorder characterized by skeletal, endocrine, and neurological abnormalities. Skeletal features include brachycephaly, midface hypoplasia with a small upturned nose, brachydactyly, and lumbar spinal stenosis. Endocrine abnormalities include hypothyroidism and hypogonadism in males and irregular menses in females. Developmental disability is a common finding but is variable in severity and can be associated with significant behavioral problems.

Long isoforms that share a conserved PKA phosphorylation site in the N-terminus are activated by PKA through phosphorylation (By similarity).
Isoform 3 and isoform 7 are activated by phosphorylation (in vitro), but not isoform 6. Isoform N3 and isoform 12 are phosphorylated on Ser-49, Ser-51, Ser-55 and Ser-59.
Sumoylation of long isoforms by PIAS4 augments their activation by PKA phosphorylation and represses their inhibition by ERK phosphorylation.
