fosfodiesteriset
Fosfodiesteriset are a class of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphodiester bonds. These bonds are critical linkages found in nucleic acids like DNA and RNA, as well as in cyclic nucleotides such as cyclic AMP (cAMP) and cyclic GMP (cGMP). The action of fosfodiesteriset involves breaking the bond between a phosphate group and two alcohol groups. This breakage typically results in the formation of a monophosphate product.
In the context of nucleic acids, fosfodiesteriset enzymes are essential for processes such as DNA replication,
Fosfodiesteriset also play a crucial role in cellular signaling pathways. Enzymes that break down cyclic nucleotides,
