Role for A Kinase-anchoring Proteins (AKAPS) in Glutamate Receptor Trafficking and Long Term Synaptic Depression*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
Expression of N-methyl d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent homosynaptic long term depression at synapses in the hippocampus and neocortex requires the persistent dephosphorylation of postsynaptic protein kinase A substrates. An attractive mechanism for

Localization of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase to the postsynaptic densities by A-kinase anchoring proteins. Characterization of AKAP 79.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1992
Postsynaptic densities (PSD) are a network of proteins located on the internal surface of excitatory synapses just inside the postsynaptic membrane. Enzymes associated with the PSD are optimally positioned to respond to signals transduced across the ...

Protein kinase A activity and anchoring are required for ovarian cancer cell migration and invasion. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the deadliest of the gynecological malignancies, due in part to its clinically occult metastasis. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms governing EOC dissemination and invasion may provide new targets for ...

Control of PKA stability and signalling by RING ligase praja2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Ligand-mediated activation of G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) mobilises compartmentalised pulses of second messengers like cAMP. The main cellular effector of cAMP is Protein Kinase A (PKA) which is assembled as inactive holoenzyme consisting of two ...

Intrinsic disorder within an AKAP-protein kinase A complex guides local substrate phosphorylation

open access: yeseLife, 2013
Anchoring proteins sequester kinases with their substrates to locally disseminate intracellular signals and avert indiscriminate transmission of these responses throughout the cell.

A-Kinase Anchoring Proteins: From protein complexes to physiology and disease

open access: yesIUBMB Life - A Journal of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2009
Protein scaffold complexes are a key mechanism by which a common signaling pathway can serve many different functions. Sequestering a signaling enzyme to a specific subcellular environment not only ensures that the enzyme is near its relevant targets ...

RACK(1) to the future – a historical perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This perspective summarises the first and long overdue RACK1 meeting held at the University of Limerick, Ireland, May 2013, in which RACK1’s role in the immune system, the heart and the brain were discussed and its contribution to disease states such as ...

Interacting protein kinases involved in the regulation of flagellar length [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A striking difference of the life stages of the protozoan parasite Leishmania is a long flagellum in the insect stage promastigotes and a rudimentary organelle in the mammalian amastigotes.

Exome sequencing of primary breast cancers with paired metastatic lesions reveals metastasis-enriched mutations in the A-kinase anchoring protein family (AKAPs)

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2018
Background Tumor heterogeneity in breast cancer tumors is today widely recognized. Most of the available knowledge in genetic variation however, relates to the primary tumor while metastatic lesions are much less studied.

A novel protein kinase-like domain in a selenoprotein, widespread in the tree of life. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Selenoproteins serve important functions in many organisms, usually providing essential oxidoreductase enzymatic activity, often for defense against toxic xenobiotic substances.
