PKA, PKC, and AKAP localization in and around the neuromuscular junction
Background One mechanism that directs the action of the second messengers, cAMP and diacylglycerol, is the compartmentalization of protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC). A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) can recruit both enzymes to specific

A systematic evaluation of protein kinase a-a-kinase anchoring protein interaction motifs [PDF]
Protein kinase A (PKA) in vertebrates is localized to specific locations in the cell via A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs). The regulatory subunits of the four PKA isoforms (RIα, RIβ, RIIα, and RIIβ) each form a homodimer, and their dimerization domain

Spoonbill positively regulates JNK signalling mediated apoptosis in Drosophila melanogaster
A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) comprises a family of scaffold proteins, which decides the subcellular localisation of a combination of signalling molecules. Spoonbill (Spoon) is a putative A-kinase anchoring protein in Drosophila.

Caractérisation de la protéine AKAP (A-Kinase Anchoring Protein) chez Plasmodium falciparum
Le paludisme est une maladie tropicale due au parasite P. falciparum. Avec le grand nombre de victimes qui lui sont imputées chaque année, cette maladie demeure la plus grande parasitose tropicale et il est primordial de la combattre. Ce combat passe aussi bien par la sensibilisation des populations que par la recherche. Plusieurs échecs thérapeutiques,

Phosphorylation events that occur in response to the second messenger cAMP are controlled spatially and temporally by protein kinase A (PKA) interacting with A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs).

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a role in chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) can inhibit transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) mediated EMT. Although compartmentalization via A-

The Stapled AKAP Disruptor Peptide STAD-2 Displays Antimalarial Activity through a PKA-Independent Mechanism. [PDF]
Drug resistance poses a significant threat to ongoing malaria control efforts. Coupled with lack of a malaria vaccine, there is an urgent need for the development of new antimalarials with novel mechanisms of action and low susceptibility to parasite ...

AKAP6 and phospholamban colocalize and interact in HEK‐293T cells and primary murine cardiomyocytes
Phospholamban (PLN) is an important Ca2+ modulator at the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of striated muscles. It physically interacts and inhibits sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA2) function, whereas a protein kinase A (PKA)‐dependent ...

Protein kinase A-anchoring (AKAP) domains in brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein 2 (BIG2) [PDF]
Like other guanine nucleotide-exchange proteins (GEPs) that activate ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) GTPases, brefeldin A-inhibited GEP2, BIG2, contains an ≈200-aa Sec7 domain that is responsible for this catalytic activity and its inhibition by brefeldin A.

Sperm protein 17 is expressed in the sperm fibrous sheath
Background Sperm protein 17 (Sp17) is a highly conserved mammalian protein characterized in rabbit, mouse, monkey, baboon, macaque, human testis and spermatozoa. mRNA encoding Sp17 has been detected in a range of murine and human somatic tissues.
