Regulation of Membrane Targeting of the G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 2 by Protein Kinase A and Its Anchoring Protein AKAP79 [PDF]
, 2001 The beta 2 adrenergic receptor (beta 2AR) undergoes desensitization by a process involving its phosphorylation by both protein kinase A (PKA) and G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs). The protein kinase A-anchoring protein AKAP79 influences beta 2AR

Colocalization of protein kinase A with adenylyl cyclase enhances protein kinase A activity during induction of long-lasting long-term-potentiation. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2011 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 ...

Phosphorylation of Spinophilin Modulates Its Interaction with Actin Filaments [PDF]
, 2003 Spinophilin is a protein phosphatase 1 (PP1)- and actin-binding protein that modulates excitatory synaptic transmission and dendritic spine morphology. We report that spinophilin is phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase A (PKA).

Improving the performance of optical burst switching with large control overhead [PDF]
, 2008 In optical burst switching (OBS) system, the throughput decreases rapidly with increase in control packet processing time Tcp. The negative impact of Tcp will become significant as the optical fiber transmission rate increases.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This research shows the development of hydrogels with Diels‐Alder click chemistry for engineering cartilage‐like tissue. The hydrogels support cartilage spheroids which could be cultured for at least 28 days. Furthermore, the spheroids showed a tendency to fuse together into a more consistent construct, and produced important components needed for ...

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