Description

PKACα protein is a key kinase that phosphorylates a variety of substrates, including CDC25B, ABL1, NFKB1, and VASP, affecting a variety of cellular processes, such as cell cycle progression, platelet regulation, and adipogenic differentiation. It also negatively regulates mTORC1 through RPTOR phosphorylation, thereby modulating signaling networks. PKA/PRKACA Protein, Human (sf9, GST) is the recombinant human-derived PKACα protein, expressed by sf9 insect cells , with GST tagged.

Background

PKACα, a protein kinase, plays a pivotal role in cellular regulation by phosphorylating a myriad of substrates in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Its extensive substrate repertoire includes CDC25B, ABL1, NFKB1, CLDN3, PSMC5/RPT6, PJA2, RYR2, RORA, SOX9, and VASP, among others. Through the phosphorylation of specific substrates, PKACα influences diverse cellular processes such as cell cycle progression, platelet regulation, adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, chondrogenesis, and tight junction dynamics. Notably, PKACα negatively regulates mTORC1 by phosphorylating RPTOR, acting as a key modulator in the intricate signaling network. Additionally, PKACα exerts regulatory effects on embryonic development, Hedgehog signaling, meiosis resumption, and even REM sleep, showcasing its multifaceted roles in cellular physiology and homeostasis.

Biological Activity

The activity was measured by off-chip mobility shift assay(MSA). The enzyme was incubated with fluorecence-labeled substrate and Mg(or Mn)/ATP. The phosphorylated and unphosphorylated substrates were separated and detected by MSA device. When the protein concentration is 0.05 nM, the conversion rate is about 20%.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
