  • Title: Calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from bovine eye: high calmodulin affinity isozyme immunologically related to the brain 60-kDa isozyme.
    Author: Sharma RK, Tan Y, Raju RV.
    Journal: Arch Biochem Biophys; 1997 Mar 01; 339(1):40-6. PubMed ID: 9056231.
    Abstract:
    Calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was identified in and purified to apparent homogeneity from the total calmodulin-binding protein fraction of bovine eye in a single step by immunoaffinity chromatography. The bovine eye calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase is immunologically similar to the bovine brain 60-kDa isozyme. The purified enzyme had higher affinity for calmodulin than the 60-kDa phosphodiesterase isozyme from bovine brain, but similar affinity to that of the heart isozyme. When the Ca(2+)-dependence of the eye enzyme was compared to cardiac calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase at an identical concentration of calmodulin, the bovine eye calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was activated at the same Ca2+ concentration as the bovine heart calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase isozyme.
