Abstract
The type 4 cAMP-specific phosphodiesterases (PDE4) are a family of closely related enzymes with similar catalytic domains and divergent amino- and carboxyl-terminus domains. Multiple PDE proteins with heterogeneous amino termini are derived from each gene. To understand the significance of this heterogeneity, the expression and localization of variants derived from PDE4A and PDE4D genes was investigated during spermatogenesis in the rat. RNase protection analysis with mRNA for testes at different ages of development showed that two transcripts (PDE4D1 and PDE4D2) are expressed at day 10 and 15 of age and become undetectable thereafter. An additional PDE4D transcript appears at day 30 and increased during testid maturation. This latter transcript codes for a long variant of the PDE4D gene and is expressed in germ cells as demonstrated by RNase protection with RNA from isolated pachytene spermatocytes and round spermatids. The presence of a corresponding PDE4D protein with a molecular mass of 98 kDa was established by immunoprecipitation and Western blot analysis with antibodies specific for PDE4D and by immunoaffinity chromatography purification of the 98 kDa variant from isolated germ cells. PDE4A transcripts were also expressed in pachytene spermatocytes and round spermatids. Two polypeptides encoded by these PDE4A transcripts were expressed in pachytene spermatocytes, reached a maximum in round spermatids, and declined thereafter. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated a localization of the PDE4D protein in the manchette and in a periacrosomal region of the developing spermatid, a localization confirmed by immunogold electron microscopy. Conversely, the PDE4A was mostly soluble in the cytoplasm of round spermatids. These data demonstrate that PDE4D and PDE4A variants are expressed at different stages and localized in distinct subcellular structures of developing spermatids. Different properties of the mRNAs derived from the two genes and localization signals are responsible for the temporal and spatial expression of the different PDE4 isoenzymes. PMID: [10218983]
