AKAP8 - A-kinase anchoring protein 8 Gene
Also Known as AKAP-8; AKAP95; AKAP 95; AKAP-95
Species: Homo sapiens
About AKAP8
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 118 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 13.0), spleen (RPKM 9.2) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the A-kinase anchor protein family. A-kinase anchor proteins are scaffold proteins that contain a binding domain for the RI/RII subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) and recruit PKA and Other signaling molecules to specific subcellular locations. This gene encodes a nuclear A-kinase anchor protein that binds to the RII alpha subunit of PKA and may play a role in chromosome condensation during Mitosis by targeting PKA and the condensin complex to chromatin. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 9. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
