PKAα cat (phospho Ser338) Polyclonal Antibody Sizes: 50μL, 100μL Catalogue Numbers: RA28791-50, RA28791-100 Lead times: 1-2 weeks, if manufacturer has product in stock Manufacturer/Ship Location: China Background: protein kinase cAMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha (PRKACA) Homo sapiens This gene encodes one of the catalytic subunits of protein kinase A, which exists as a tetrameric holoenzyme with two regulatory subunits and two catalytic subunits, in its inactive form. cAMP causes the dissociation of the inactive holoenzyme into a dimer of regulatory subunits bound to four cAMP and two free monomeric catalytic subunits. Four different regulatory subunits and three catalytic subunits have been identified in humans. cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of proteins by protein kinase A is important to many cellular processes, including differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. Constitutive activation of this gene caused either by somatic mutations, or genomic duplications of regions that include this gene, have been associated with hyperplasias and adenomas of the adrenal cortex and are linked to corticotropin-independent Cushing's syndrome.
