Kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) are a family of structurally diverse multidomain proteins classified solely by their ability to bind cAMP-dependent protein kinase/protein kinase A (PKA).

Colocalization of protein kinase A with adenylyl cyclase enhances protein kinase A activity during induction of long-lasting long-term-potentiation. [PDF]
The ability of neurons to differentially respond to specific temporal and spatial input patterns underlies information storage in neural circuits. One means of achieving spatial specificity is to restrict signaling molecules to particular subcellular ...

Anchoring proteins encounter mitotic kinases [PDF]
Defective progression of cells through mitosis permits an accumulation of genetic defects that lead to aneuploidy. Cells in a state of aneuploidy acquire mutations that eventually cause their transformation from normal cells into cancer.1 Recent evidence suggests that perturbing the spatial and temporal pattern of cell division can enhance such ...

Cypher/ZASP Is a Novel A-kinase Anchoring Protein [PDF]
PKA signaling is important for the post-translational modification of proteins, especially those in cardiomyocytes involved in cardiac excitation-contraction coupling. PKA activity is spatially and temporally regulated through compartmentalization by protein kinase A anchoring proteins.

Epac Function and cAMP Scaffolds in the Heart and Lung
Evidence collected over the last ten years indicates that Epac and cAMP scaffold proteins play a critical role in integrating and transducing multiple signaling pathways at the basis of cardiac and lung physiopathology. Some of the deleterious effects of

PKA and PDE4D3 anchoring to AKAP9 provides distinct regulation of cAMP signals at the centrosome [PDF]
Previous work has shown that the protein kinase A (PKA)–regulated phosphodiesterase (PDE) 4D3 binds to A kinase–anchoring proteins (AKAPs). One such protein, AKAP9, localizes to the centrosome.

Identification and functional characterization of A-kinase anchoring proteins
Compartmentalization of signal transduction enzymes is an important mechanism for imparting cellular signaling specificity. This occurs through the interaction of enzymes with scaffolding or anchoring proteins.

Gravin orchestrates protein kinase A and 2-adrenergic receptor signaling critical for synaptic plasticity and memory [PDF]
A kinase-anchoring proteins (AKAPs) organize compartmentalized pools of protein kinase A (PKA) to enable localized signaling events within neurons. However, it is unclear which of the many expressed AKAPs in neurons target PKA to signaling complexes ...

Function of Adenylyl Cyclase in Heart: the AKAP Connection
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), synthesized by adenylyl cyclase (AC), is a universal second messenger that regulates various aspects of cardiac physiology from contraction rate to the initiation of cardioprotective stress response pathways.
