About Akap8

Summary

Enables double-stranded DNA binding activity; protein kinase A regulatory subunit binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to prostaglandin E stimulus; negative regulation of tumor necrosis factor production; and regulation of histone modification. Predicted to act upstream of or within mitotic chromosome condensation. Located in Golgi apparatus; mitochondrion; and nuclear matrix. Orthologous to human AKAP8 (A-kinase anchoring protein 8).
