Dilute 1 mM Phosphate Standard provided by the Sialyltransferase Kit by adding 40 µL of the 1 mM Phosphate Standard to 360 µL of <br>Assay Buffer for a 100 µM stock. <br>2. Continue standard curve by performing six additional one-half serial dilutions of the 100 µM Phosphate stock in Assay Buffer. The standard curve has a range of 0.039-2.5 nmol per well due to volume loaded in step 5. <br>3. Dilute rhPDE4A to 0.025 µg/mL in Assay Buffer. 4. Create a substrate mixture containing 1 µg/mL Coupling Phosphatase 2 and 0.4 mM cAMP in Assay Buffer. 5. Load 25 µL of each dilution of the standard curve into a plate. Include a Control containing 25 µL of Assay Buffer. 6. Load 25 µL of the 0.025 µg/mL rhPDE4A into the plate. 7. Add 25 µL of the substrate mixture to all wells, including the standard curve. 8. Cover the plate with a plate sealer and incubate at 37 °C for 30 minutes. 9. Add 30 µL of the Malachite Green Reagent A to all wells. Mix briefly. <br>10. Add 100 µL of deionized water to all wells, including curve. Mix briefly. 11. Add 30 µL of the Malachite Green Reagent B to all wells. Mix and incubate for 20 minutes at room temperature. 12. Read plate at 620 nm (absorbance) in endpoint mode. 13.

Phosphodiesterase 4, subtype A (PDE4A) is a rolipram-sensitive member of the cyclic phosphodiesterase family and catalyzes the specific hydrolysis of cAMP to 5'-AMP. Numerous inhibitors of PDE4 have been studied and considered as anti-inflammatory therapeutics for treatment of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, type 2 diabetes, and potentially several CNS disorders (1-5). R&D Systems’ recombinant human PDE4A corresponds to the catalytic domain (6). </p><p><strong>References: </strong></p><p>1. Bender A.T. and J.A. Beavo (2006) Pharmacol.
