Preferred Label : cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases, type 6;
MeSH definition : A cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase subfamily that is highly specific for CYCLIC
GMP. It is found predominantly in the outer segment PHOTORECEPTOR CELLS of the RETINA.
It is comprised of two catalytic subunits, referred to as alpha and beta, that form
a dimer. In addition two regulatory subunits, referred to as gamma and delta, modulate
the activity and localization of the enzyme.;
