Background: cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) is an ubiquitous serine/theonine protein kinase present in a variety of tissues (e.g. brain, skeletal muscle, heart). The intracellular cAMP level regulates cellular responses by altering the interaction between the catatytic C and regulatory R subunits of PKA. The inactive tetrameric PKA holoenzyme R2C2 is activated when cAMP binds to R2, which dissociates the tetramer to R2*cAMP4 and two active catalytic subunits. Free Catalytic subunits of PKA can phosphorylate a wide variety of intracellular target proteins.
Three principal genes, PRKACA, PRKACB and PRKX encode the catalytic subunits of PKA Cα, Cβ and PRKX, respectively. Whereas Cα1 is ubiquitously expressed in man, Cα2 is exclusively expressed in the sperm cell. The human Cβ gene encodes six splice variants, designated Cβ1, Cβ2, Cβ3, Cβ4, Cβ4ab and Cβ4abc. The Cβ splice variants differ in their N-terminal ends due to differential splicing and are expressed in the brain of higher primates. Human PKA Cα1 and Cβ1 have the same length (350 residues) and share 93% sequence identity.
