DR UNIPROT: Q8QZV1; DR UNIPROT: F1LRG6; DR Pfam: PF00233; DR PROSITE: PS00126; DR PROSITE: PS51845; DE 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. 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. 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 (By similarity). In brain, involved in cognitive function, such as learning and long-term memory (PubMed:18674549, PubMed:22070409, PubMed:22328573). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O76083, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18674549, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22070409, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22328573}.
