Gene information for AKAP10 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID11216
Official gene symbolAKAP10
Full nameA kinase (PRKA) anchor protein 10
Aliases,D-AKAP2,MGC9414,PRKA10,
Gene summaryThe A-kinase anchor proteins (AKAPs) are a group of structurally diverse proteins, which have the common function of binding to the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) and confining the holoenzyme to discrete locations within the cell. This gene encodes a member of the AKAP family. The encoded protein interacts with both the type I and type II regulatory subunits of PKA; therefore, it is a dual-specific AKAP. This protein is highly enriched in mitochondria. It contains RGS (regulator of G protein signalling) domains, in addition to a PKA-RII subunit-binding domain. The mitochondrial localization and the presence of RGS domains may have important implications for the function of this protein in PKA and G protein signal transduction. [provided by RefSeq]
