Function
- binds to protein kinase A type II regulatory subunits
- scaffolding protein that assembles several protein kinases & phosphatases on the centrosome & Golgi apparatus
- may be required to maintain the integrity of the Golgi
- isoform 4 is associated with the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor & is specifically found in the neuromuscular junction as well as in neuronal synapses, suggesting a role in organization of postsynaptic specializations
- phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR
- interacts with the regulatory region of protein kinase N (PKN), protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) & the immature non-phosphorylated form of PKC epsilon
- interacts with CIP4 & FNBP1
- interacts with chloride intracellular channel proteins CLIC1, CLIC4 & CLIC5
Structure
- PKA RII-binding site, predicted to form an amphipathic helix, could participate in protein-protein interactions with a complementary surface on the PKA-R-subunit dimer
Compartment
Alternative splicing
named isoforms=6
Expression
- widely expressed
- isoform 4 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle & in pancreas
Pathology
- defects in AKAP9 are the cause of long QT syndrome type 11
