RhoPDE C-terminal phosphodiesterase catalytic domain

Protein Domain·Research·Since 2017

Also known as: isolated PDE domain, phosphodiesterase domain

Taxonomy: Mechanism Branch / Component. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.

Summary

The RhoPDE C-terminal phosphodiesterase catalytic domain is the isolated catalytic region of the rhodopsin/phosphodiesterase fusion protein RhoPDE from the choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta. It has been expressed, purified, and structurally characterized by crystallography, while the parent full-length protein was reported to function as a cGMP-selective phosphodiesterase.

Usefulness & Problems

Why this is useful

This domain is useful as a structurally defined phosphodiesterase module from a rhodopsin-linked enzyme with reported optogenetic relevance in its full-length context. It provides a tractable system for studying the catalytic region of RhoPDE and for investigating cyclic nucleotide hydrolysis properties associated with the parent enzyme.

Source:

RhoPDE has potential as an optogenetic tool catalyzing the hydrolysis of cyclic nucleotides.

Problem solved

It helps address the need for an isolated, purifiable catalytic domain from RhoPDE for biochemical and structural analysis. The available evidence supports its use in dissecting the phosphodiesterase portion of a rhodopsin-PDE fusion protein from Salpingoeca rosetta.

Implementation Constraints

The source literature reports an expression and purification system for RhoPDE and a crystal structure of the C-terminal phosphodiesterase catalytic domain. No additional implementation details such as cofactors, host system, delivery strategy, or construct boundaries are provided in the supplied evidence.

Evidence for this specific isolated domain is limited mainly to expression, purification, and crystallographic characterization. Reported lack of light modulation applies to RhoPDE phosphodiesterase activity in the source study, and no independent evidence here demonstrates light control, cellular performance, or standalone functional validation of the isolated domain.
