Biological background
PDE4D (protein: Glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (gsk3b)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Molecular chaperone that promotes the maturation, structural maintenance and proper regulation of specific target proteins involved for instance in cell cycle control and signal transduction. Undergoes a functional cycle that is linked to its ATPase activity. This cycle probably induces conformational changes in the client proteins, thereby causing their activation. Interacts dynamically with various co-chaperones that modulate its substrate recognition, ATPase cycle and chaperone function. Binds bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) et mediates LPS-induced inflammatory response, including TNF secretion by monocytes. . Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Isoform 1 and isoform 2 were identified in platelets and megakaryocytes, but not in reticulocytes or in Jurkat and U-937 white blood cell line. Isoform 3 is expressed by leukemia, prostate adenocarcinoma and melanoma cells but not by platelets or normal prostate or breast epithelial cells.
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Biochemicals,Chemical Type,Neurology Process,Neuroscience.
- Current studies often focus on connecting target abundance/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.
- Quantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate PDE4D antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect PDE4D expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Compare relative PDE4D levels across experimental conditions (dose/time-course) using antibody-based readouts
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Apparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 85 kDa; calculated MW: 34735 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
Additional product details (from the source record)
- Molecular weight (observed): 85 kDa
- Cellular localization (provided): Cytoplasm .
- Tissue details (provided): Isoform 1 and isoform 2 were identified in platelets and megakaryocytes, but not in reticulocytes or in Jurkat and U-937 white blood cell line. Isoform 3 is expressed by leukemia, prostate adenocarcinoma and melanoma cells but not by platelets or normal prostate or breast epithelial cells.
