ID:AKAP8_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=A-kinase anchor protein 8; Short=AKAP-8; AltName: Full=A-kinase anchor protein 95 kDa; Short=AKAP 95; FUNCTION: Anchoring protein that mediates the subcellular compartmentation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA type II). SUBUNIT: Binds to dimeric RII-alpha regulatory subunit of PKA during mitosis. Interacts (via C-terminus) with FIGN (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus matrix. Note=Associated with the nuclear matrix. Redistributed and detached from condensed chromatin during mitosis. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in heart, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the AKAP95 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 C2H2 AKAP95-type zinc fingers.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
