Evolution of Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitors

The World Journal of Men's Health, 2015
After the launch of sildenafil citrate (Viagra®), the last great invention of the 20th century, in 1998, oral phosphodiesterase (PDE)-5 inhibitors were established as first-line treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED), representing a paradigm shift in the diagnosis and treatment of ED [1].

Sequence‐ and Docking‐Site‐Dependent Contributions to Multi‐Site Phosphorylation of an Intrinsically Disordered MAPK Substrate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Real‐time NMR spectroscopy is used to study JNK1‐dependent phosphorylation of the intrinsically disordered substrate JIP1, revealing eleven phosphosites with distinct phosphorylation efficiencies. The site‐specific phosphorylation rates are shown to be determined by both the sequence position of the phosphosites relative to the two kinase docking site ...

Genetic Impacts on the Structure and Mechanics of Cellulose Made by Bacteria

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A genetic mutation in a protease of a cellulose‐overproducing evolved bacterium significantly affects the proteome, structure, and mechanical properties of bio‐fabricated cellulose pellicles. By overexpressing synthase proteins that build the cellulose‐forming biological machinery of the cell, the evolved bacterium generates dense, stiff, and strong ...

Use of the KlADH3 promoter for the quantitative production of the murine PDE5A isoforms in the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Phosphodiesterases (PDE) are a superfamily of enzymes that hydrolyse cyclic nucleotides (cAMP/ cGMP), signal molecules in transduction pathways regulating crucial aspects of cell life.

A novel, highly potent and selective phosphodiesterase-9 inhibitor for the treatment of sickle cell disease

Haematologica, 2020
The most common treatment for patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) is the chemotherapeutic hydroxyurea, a therapy with pleiotropic effects, including increasing fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in red blood cells and reducing adhesion of white blood cells to ...
