Pde6h Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable cGMP binding activity; calmodulin-activated 3',5'-cyclic-GMP phosphodiesterase activity; and calmodulin-activated dual specificity 3',5'-cyclic-GMP, 3',5'-cyclic-AMP phosphodiesterase activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and positive regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of MAPK cascade. Predicted to be active in photoreceptor outer segment membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinal cone dystrophy 3A. Orthologous to human PDE6H (phosphodiesterase 6H). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 rat Pde6h often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
