| Analysis Note: | Protein determined by biuret. |
| Application: | Protein Kinase A from bovine heart has been used to determine its activity using a molecular beacon probe. It has also been used to study the interaction of staurosporine with the ATP-binding site of kinases. |
| Application: | Protein Kinase A from bovine heart has been used to inhibit the phosphorylation of myosin. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Many 3′,5′-cyclic AMP dependent protein kinases have been reported. Structural studies (Traugh, J.A., et al., Meth. Enzymol., 38, 290 [1974]) show the presence of at least two subunits, the regulatory subunit and the catalytic subunit. When both units are linked together, the catalytic activity is inhibited. However, when the cyclic-AMP binds to the regulatory subunit, the catalytic subunit is released and can then catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to various proteins. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Protein Kinase A (PKA) inhibits hormone-sensitive lipase translocation from cytosol to storage droplets and blocks lipolysis. It regulates apoptosis, mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthesis. PKA is modulated by protease calpain. |
| General description: | Protein Kinase A (PKA) is a serine/threonine kinase, which exists as a tetrameric holoenzyme. |
| Other Notes: | One unit will transfer 1.0 picomole phosphate from ATP to hydrolyzed and partially dephosphorylated casein per minute at pH 6.5 at 30°C in the presence of cyclic AMP, determined by measuring the production of ADP. |
