Characterization of the Tandem GAF Domain of Human Phosphodiesterase 5 Using a Cyanobacterial Adenylyl Cyclase as a Reporter Enzyme

Abstract: We analyzed cGMP signaling by the human phosphodiesterase 5 (hPDE5) tandem GAF domain based on a functional activation assay. The C-terminal catalytic domain of the cyanobacterial adenylyl cyclase (AC) cyaB1 was used as a reporter enzyme. We demonstrate functional coupling between the hPDE5 GAF ensemble and the AC resulting in a chimera stimulated 10-fold by cGMP. The hPDE5 GAF domain has an inhibitory effect on AC activity, which is released upon cGMP activation. Removal of 109 amino acids from the N terminus… Show more

“…The advantage of these constructs was that they allowed easy monitoring of cGMP/GAF domain-induced signaling through changes in adenylate cyclase activity (Kanacher et al, 2002). Human PDE5 GAF-AB domain chimeras showed significant activation by cGMP (Bruder et al, 2006). However, constructs containing either GAF-A or GAF-B PDE5 were unable to respond to cGMP stimulation (Hofbauer et al, 2008), suggesting that both GAF-A and GAF-B domains are necessary for cGMP/GAF domain PDE5 signaling.…”

“…7B). In this context, the N-terminal half of P␥ may play a role in PDE6 regulation not unlike the N-terminal regions of other GAF-containing cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase catalytic subunits, which exert regulatory control over catalytic activity (61,62).…”

“…We show that the N-terminal domains which precede the PDE GAF domains in PDE5 and PDE11 greatly affect GAF domain signalling and, thus, likely participate in intramolecular signalling [2,3]. For example, the GAF tandem of PDE11 has a low cGMP affinity (EC50 = 72 μM) i.e.…”

“…This cyclase has an N-terminal GAF tandem which is similar to those in mammalian PDEs and regulates cyclase activity in a feed-forward manner using the product cAMP as an activator. Surprisingly, the GAF tandem domains of PDE 2, 5, 10, and 11 functionally couple to the cyclase and regulate it in a manner consistent with their function in the respective PDEs [1][2][3].…”
