This occurs through the interaction of enzymes with scaffolding or anchoring proteins. To date, one of the best-studied examples of kinase anchoring is the targeting of PKA to cellular locations through its association with A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs). AKAPs mediate a high-affinity interaction with the type II regulatory subunit (RII) of PKA to localize the kinase to pools of cAMP and within proximity of preferred substrates. Furthermore, AKAPs can organize entire signaling complexes made up of kinases, phosphates, and regulatory proteins. 000000999 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000999 650__ $$aSignal Transduction$$028380 000000999 650__ $$aA Kinase Anchor Proteins$$038018 000000999 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000000999 692__ $$aDepartment of Cell, Developmental and Cancer Biology$$041399 000000999 7001_ $$aAlto, Neal$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000000999 8564_ $$9a6b81f7a-f2d1-4618-be68-28ce242b7335$$s9666378$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/999/files/1014_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$2c1275d802a2aef0b8337423f51f6cee1$$31 000000999 905__ $$a/rest/prod/2r/36/tx/57/2r36tx57k 000000999 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:999$$pstudent-work 000000999 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
