PDE10A (phosphodiesterase 10A) is a striatum-enriched dual-substrate phosphodiesterase that participates in signal transduction by regulating the concentration of cyclic nucleotides. Localized to soluble cellular fractions within the cytoplasm, PDE10A can hydrolyze both cGMP and cAMP to the corresponding nucleoside 5-prime monophosphate, thereby eliminating cGMP- and cAMP-mediated intracellular signaling. Through its ability to hydrolyze cyclic nucleotides, PDE10A regulates the excitability of medium spiny neurons located in the striatum. PDE10A is expressed abundantly in the putamen and caudate nuclear regions of the testis and brain, with moderate expression observed in the pituitary gland, thalamus and cerebellum. PDE10A contains an N-terminal regulatory domain and a C-terminal catalytic domain which has two putative divalent metal binding sites. Two isoforms exist due to alternative splicing events.
