The present invention provides novel human PDE10 polypeptides, polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, expression constructs comprising the polynucleotides, host cells transformed with the expression constructs; methods for producing PDE10 polypeptides; antisense polynucleotides; and antibodies specifically immunoreactive with the PDE10 polypeptides. The invention further provides methods to identify binding partners of PDE 10, and more particularly, binding partners that modulate PDE10 enzyme activity.

Phosphodiesterase 10

Polynucleotides encoding novel Atr-2 cell cycle checkpoint polypeptides are disclosed, along with expression constructs comprising the polynucleotides, host cells transformed with the expression constructs, methods to make the Atr-2 polypeptides using the host cells, Atr-2 polypeptides, and binding partners of the Atr-2 polypeptides.

ATR-2 cell cycle checkpoint

The present invention provides novel human PDE10 polypeptides, polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, expression constructs comprising the polynucleotides, host cells transformed with the expression constructs; methods for producing PDE10 polypeptides; antisense polynucleotides; and antibodies specifically immunoreactive with the PDE10 polypeptides. The invention further provides methods to identify binding partners of PDE10, and more particularly, binding partners that modulate PDE10 enzyme activity.

The present invention provides novel human PDE8 polypeptides, polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, expression constructs comprising the polynucleotides, host cells transformed with the expression constructs; methods for producing PDE8 polypeptides; antisense polynucleotides; and antibodies specifically immunoreactive with the PDE8 polypeptides.

Phosphodiesterase 8A

The present invention provides novel purified and isolated nucleotide sequences encoding the cGMP-binding, cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase designated cGB-PDE. Also provided by the invention are methods and materials for the recombinant production of cGB-PDE polypeptide products and methods for identifying compounds which modulate the enzymatic activity of cGB-PDE polypeptides.

Cyclic GMP-binding, cyclic GMP-specific phosphodiesterase materials and

The present invention provides novel purified and isolated nucleotide sequences encoding the cGMP-binding, cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase designated cGB-PDE. Antibodies to the cGMP-binding, cGMP-stimulated phosphodiesterase are disclosed. Also provided by the invention are methods and materials for the recombinant production of cGB-PDE polypeptide products and methods for identifying compounds which modulate the enzymatic activity of cGB-PDE polypeptides.
