Pde4b Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables gamma-tubulin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to lipopolysaccharide; neutrophil chemotaxis; and neutrophil homeostasis. Located in several cellular components, including centrosome; postsynaptic density; and synaptic vesicle. Part of gamma-tubulin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; ear; genitourinary system; nervous system; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence. Orthologous to human PDE4B (phosphodiesterase 4B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Pde4b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
