Gene Information

human ... PDE3A(5139)

General description

The gene PDE3A (phosphodiesterase 3A) encodes a cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase that is expressed mainly in cardiac and vascular myocytes and platelets. The cDNA contains a C-terminal catalytic region that spans around 280 amino acids and two hydrophobic regions at the N-terminus that participate in intracellular targeting. The gene containing 16 exons spanning over 130kb is mapped to human chromosome 12p12.

cGMP-inhibited 3′,5′-cyclic phosphodiesterase A recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The cyclic nucleotide PDEs (phosphodiesterases) hydrolyze cyclic nucleotides, cAMP and cGMP. The isoforms of PDE3 are cGMP-inhibited phosphodiesterases that hydrolyze cAMP and participate in the regulation of myocardial contractility, aggregation of platelets, and vascular smooth muscle relaxation. PDE3A activity is crucial for the maintenance of low equilibrium levels of cAMP and to determine the onset for platelet activation. Its activity can be increased by PKC (protein kinase C)-mediated phosphorylation, in turn regulating cAMP levels in human platelets.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

PDE3A cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases regulate cAMP- and cGMP-mediated intracellular signaling in cardiac myocytes. We used antibodies to different regions of PDE3A to demonstrate the presence of three PDE3A isoforms in these cells. These isoforms, whose apparent molecular weights are 136,000

Liposarcomas (LPSs) are a heterogeneous group of malignancies that arise from adipose tissue. Although LPSs are among the most common soft-tissue sarcoma subtypes, precision medicine treatments are not currently available.
