Biological function summary
PDE9A regulates the signaling processes by controlling cGMP turnover. It functions as a part of a larger network of proteins involved in intracellular signal transduction. PDE9A does not typically form distinct complexes but interacts with signaling components to maintain balanced cGMP concentrations which is essential for signaling related to vasodilation and platelet aggregation.
Pathways
PDE9A influences both cardiovascular and central nervous system pathways. In the cardiovascular system it interacts with nitric oxide signaling which has connections to blood pressure regulation through vasodilation. Within the CNS PDE9A is involved in synaptic plasticity relating to proteins like phosphodiesterase PDE5 and PDE2 which also handle cyclic nucleotide breakdown affecting neurotransmitter signaling and learning processes.

General info
Function
Specifically hydrolyzes the second messenger cGMP, which is a key regulator of many important physiological processes. Highly specific : compared to other members of the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family, has the highest affinity and selectivity for cGMP (PubMed : 18757755, PubMed : 21483814, PubMed : 9624146). Specifically regulates natriuretic-peptide-dependent cGMP signaling in heart, acting as a regulator of cardiac hypertrophy in myocytes and muscle. Does not regulate nitric oxide-dependent cGMP in heart (PubMed : 25799991). Additional experiments are required to confirm whether its ability to hydrolyze natriuretic-peptide-dependent cGMP is specific to heart or is a general feature of the protein (Probable). In brain, involved in cognitive function, such as learning and long-term memory (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family. PDE9 subfamily.
