PKA, catalytic subunit, recombinant
Untagged recombinant, human full length PKA, catalytic subunit type α.
Biological information
Background
Cyclic-AMP exerts its effects in animal cells mainly by activating the enzyme cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA). This enzyme catalyzes transfer of the terminal phosphate group from ATP to specific serines and threonines of selected proteins. Covalent phosphorylation of the appropriate amino acids of specific cellular proteins in turn results in altered cellullar function as a consequence of activation or inactivation of enzymes or altered membrane permeability to ions or other possible effects. PKA is found in all animal cells, and it is known that hormones or transmitters may be mediated by cAMP-stimulated phosphorylation of specific sites on neuronal or non-neuronal cells to exert their physiological function.
