Summary
This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. The holoenzyme, protein kinase A (also known as cyclic-AMP dependent protein kinase), mediates cellular response to changes in cyclic-AMP levels. This gene encodes the alpha catalytic subunit of protein kinase A. Protein kinase A-mediated signaling is transduced via phosphorylation of target proteins, and is important for many cellular functions, including mammalian sperm maturation and motility. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on the X chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

  1. NM_001277898.1NP_001264827.1  cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit alpha isoform 2

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2, also known as Cs and Calpha2) contains an alternate 5'-most exon and initiates translation at an alternate start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (2) has a distinct and shorter N-terminus, compared to isoform 1. This variant is testis-specific and the encoded isoform does not contain the myristylation signal found in isoform 1 (PMID: 10841548 and PMID: 10982398). There are no publicly available full-length transcripts for this variant, but it is supported by publication data, including PMID: 10982398.
