Description
PDE7B (phosphodiesterase 7B) encodes a member of the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family that specifically hydrolyzes cAMP. The enzyme plays a role in regulating intracellular cAMP levels, impacting signaling pathways in the brain, immune cells, and other tissues. Alternative splicing generates multiple transcript variants.

Mutation functional classification
Loss of Function (LOF)
Nonsense and frameshift variants that truncate the catalytic domain reduce cAMP hydrolysis.
Gain of Function (GOF)
Not well characterized; some missense variants may increase enzyme activity.
Dominant Negative (DN)
No evidence currently available.

Protein Summary
PDE7B is a 450-amino acid protein that specifically hydrolyzes cAMP to AMP, thereby terminating cAMP-dependent signaling. It contains a conserved catalytic domain and is expressed in multiple isoforms. The enzyme is implicated in neuronal plasticity, immune cell activation, and smooth muscle relaxation.
