[3H]Vardenafil (Levitra) or [3H]tadalafil (Cialis) binding was used to quantify PDE5 in rat lung and heart tissue. Each radioligand bound to purified recombinant phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) or to PDE5 in crude extracts with strong affinity, high speci

The physiological role of phosphodiesterase (PDE)11 is unknown and its biochemical characteristics are poorly understood. We have expressed human His-tagged PDE11A4 and purified the enzyme to apparent homogeneity. PDE11A4 displays K(m) values of 0.97

Sildenafil (Viagra) potentiates penile erection by acting as a nonhydrolyzable analog of cGMP and competing with this nucleotide for catalysis by phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5), but the characteristics of direct binding of radiolabeled sildenafil to PDE5

This study evaluated whether sildenafil citrate, an oral treatment for erectile dysfunction and a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) with modest vasodilating properties, affects cardiac contractility in vitro.Slices of freshly obt

In addition to its cGMP-selective catalytic site, cGMP-binding cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase (PDE5) contains two allosteric cGMP-binding sites and at least one phosphorylation site (Ser92) on each subunit [Thomas, M.K., Francis, S.H. & Corbin, J.D.

Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) comprise a superfamily of phosphohydrolases that degrade 3',5'-cyclic nucleotides. All known mammalian PDEs are dimeric, but the functional significance of dimerization is unknown. A deletion mutant of cGMP-binding cGMP-spec

Three methods have been used to assess the conformational effects associated with ligand binding to two unrelated cyclic nucleotide receptor proteins: the cGMP-binding, cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase (cGB-PDE or PDE5A) and the cGMP-dependent protein

Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) is phosphorylated at a single serine residue by cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases. To test for a direct effect of phosphorylation on the PDE5 catalytic site, independent of cGMP binding to the allosteric sites of

Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) specifically hydrolyzes cGMP, thereby contributing to modulation of intracellular levels of this nucleotide. In the present study, preincubation with cGMP increased PDE5 catalytic activity for cGMP degradation, and it conve

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) have been investigated for years as targets for therapeutic intervention in a number of pathophysiological processes. Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5), which is highly specific for guanosine 3'-5'-cyclic-monophos
