- BACKGROUND
Primary Accession | O43687 |
---|
Gene ID | 9465 |
---|---|
Other Names | A-kinase anchor protein 7 isoforms alpha and beta, AKAP-7 isoforms alpha and beta, A-kinase anchor protein 18 kDa, AKAP 18, Protein kinase A-anchoring protein 7 isoforms alpha/beta, PRKA7 isoforms alpha/beta, AKAP7, AKAP15, AKAP18 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7750b was selected from the C-term region of human AKAP7. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | AKAP7 |
---|---|
Synonyms | AKAP15, AKAP18 |
Function | Targets the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) to the plasma membrane, and permits functional coupling to the L-type calcium channel. The membrane-associated form reduces epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity, whereas the free cytoplasmic form may negatively regulate ENaC channel feedback inhibition by intracellular sodium. |
Cellular Location | [Isoform Alpha]: Lateral cell membrane; Lipid- anchor. Note=Targeted predominantly to the lateral membrane |
Tissue Location | Expressed in brain, heart, lung, pancreas and skeletal muscle. |

Background
AKAP7 is a member of the A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) family, a group of functionally related proteins that bind to a regulatory subunit (RII) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) and target the enzyme to specific subcellular compartments. AKAPs have a common RII-binding domain, but contain different targeting motifs responsible for directing PKA to distinct intracellular locations.
