AKAP7 Proteins

Protein Information

This gene encodes a member of the A-kinase anchoring protein family, a group of functionally related proteins that bind to a regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A and target the enzyme to specific subcellular compartments. AKAPs have a common RII-binding domain, but contain different targeting motifs responsible for directing PKA to distinct intracellular locations. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. Additional variants exist, but their full-length natures have not been determined.
