Phosphorylates CDC25B, ABL1, NFKB1, CLDN3, PSMC5\/RPT6, PJA2, RYR2, RORA, SOX9 and VASP. Regulates the abundance of compartmentalized pools of its regulatory subunits through phosphorylation of PJA2 which binds and ubiquitinates these subunits, leading to their subsequent proteolysis. RORA is activated by phosphorylation. Required for glucose-mediated adipogenic differentiation increase and osteogenic differentiation inhibition from osteoblasts. Involved in chondrogenesis by mediating phosphorylation of SOX9. Involved in the regulation of platelets in response to thrombin and collagen; maintains circulating platelets in a resting state by phosphorylating proteins in numerous platelet inhibitory pathways when in complex with NF-kappa-B (NFKB1 and NFKB2) and I-kappa-B-alpha (NFKBIA), but thrombin and collagen disrupt these complexes and free active PRKACA stimulates platelets and leads to platelet aggregation by phosphorylating VASP. Prevents the antiproliferative and anti-invasive effects of alpha-difluoromethylornithine in breast cancer cells when activated. RYR2 channel activity is potentiated by phosphorylation in presence of luminal Ca(2+), leading to reduced amplitude and increased frequency of store overload-induced Ca(2+) release (SOICR) characterized by an increased rate of Ca(2+) release and propagation velocity of spontaneous Ca(2+) waves, despite reduced wave amplitude and resting cytosolic Ca(2+). PSMC5\/RPT6 activation by phosphorylation stimulates proteasome. Negatively regulates tight junctions (TJs) in ovarian cancer cells via CLDN3 phosphorylation. NFKB1 phosphorylation promotes NF-kappa-B p50-p50 DNA binding. Involved in embryonic development by down-regulating the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway that determines embryo pattern formation and morphogenesis. Prevents meiosis resumption in prophase-arrested oocytes via CDC25B inactivation by phosphorylation. May also regulate rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in the pedunculopontine tegmental (PPT). Phosphorylates APOBEC3G and AICDA. Phosphorylates HSF1; this phosphorylation promotes HSF1 nuclear localization and transcriptional activity upon heat shock. ; [Isoform 2]: Phosphorylates and activates ABL1 in sperm flagellum to promote spermatozoa capacitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDomain- and isoform-aware assay design to improve biological interpretation across model systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantitative workflows emphasizing calibration standards, spike-in controls, and cross-lot comparability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn vitro binding\/kinetics profiling (SPR\/BLI) to connect biochemical interactions with cellular phenotypes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure PRKACA enzymatic activity with defined substrates\/cofactors (in vitro assay).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvaluate inhibitor\/activator effects on PRKACA activity across a concentration series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantify PRKACA using calibration standards in plate-based assays (assay development).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfile binding interactions of PRKACA by SPR\/BLI (kinetic characterization).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret results in the context of the biological system, assay format, and any known domain\/isoform constraints for the target.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsider species- and isoform-specific differences when comparing results across models or homologs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor quantitative assays, include appropriate negative controls and matrix-matched spike-in concepts to assess non-specific signal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProtKB entry (P17612) — UniProt: https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/P17612 - NCBI Gene search (PRKACA) — NCBI: https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=PRKACA - PubMed search — NLM: https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=PRKACA - Reactome pathway browser — Reactome: https:\/\/reactome.org\/ - InterPro protein family resource — EMBL-EBI: https:\/\/www.ebi.ac.uk\/interpro\/ --\u003e","brand":"CUSABIO TECHNOLOGY LLC","offers":[{"title":"1 mg","offer_id":53059276833133,"sku":"CSB-EP018688HUe2-1MG","price":2062.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug","offer_id":53059400827245,"sku":"CSB-EP018688HUe2-100UG","price":480.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ug","offer_id":53059400860013,"sku":"CSB-EP018688HUe2-20UG","price":256.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/CSB-EP018688HUe2-SDS.jpg?v=1772280214","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/recombinant-human-camp-dependent-protein-kinase-catalytic-subunit-alpha-prkaca-bhp10515038","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
