Description
PKAcα, GST-tag | 40154 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Category: Kinase-Serine/Threonine/Protein
Application: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling
Background: The catalytic subunit C-alpha of PKA (PKAcα) is a member of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family and has been assigned to chromosome region 19p13.1 (1). Null mutation in PKAcα leads to early postnatal lethality in the majority of C-alpha knockout mice. Surprisingly, a small percentage of C-alpha knockout mice, although runted, survived to adulthood. In these animals, compensatory increases in C-beta levels occurred in brain whereas many tissues, including skeletal muscle, heart, and sperm, contained less than 10% of the normal PKA activity (2).
Description: Recombinant human PKAcα (catalytic subunit C-alpha of PKA), full length, with N-terminal GST-tag, expressed in Sf9 insect cells via a baculovirus expression system.
