Supplementary information

AKAP95 also known as A-kinase anchor protein 95 is a scaffolding protein with a mass of approximately 85-100 kDa. This protein facilitates the localization of protein kinase A (PKA) to specific subcellular compartments optimizing its function. AKAP95 is expressed in the nucleus of various cell types where it participates in organizing and assembling multi-protein complexes. It plays a mechanical role in linking PKA to specific substrates and other signaling molecules which influences cellular processes.
Biological function summary

AKAP95 integrates into protein complexes that regulate key aspects of cell cycle progression and transcription. It acts in chromatin remodeling which influences gene expression. AKAP95 interacts with several regulatory proteins such as cyclin-dependent kinases to affect cell division. Its role extends to ensuring efficient mitotic entry and chromosome segregation. Through these interactions AKAP95 serves as a central node in the orchestration of nuclear events critical for cell proliferation.

Pathways

AKAP95 operates within signaling networks like the cAMP/PKA pathway and the cell cycle regulation pathway. Through these pathways it connects intimately with proteins such as PKA and cyclin-dependent kinases. AKAP95 binds to these proteins facilitating the orchestration of phosphorylation events that drive cellular responses to external and internal stimuli. These pathways highlight AKAP95’s connectivity in transducing signals necessary for maintaining cellular homeostasis and proliferation control.

AKAP95 shows connections to cancer and cardiac disease. Alterations in its expression and function associate with oncogenic processes involving abnormal cell proliferation commonly seen in cancers. Interactions with proteins like cyclin-dependent kinases highlight its role in tumorigenesis. Additionally dysregulated cAMP/PKA signaling linked to AKAP95 contributes to cardiac dysfunction. Therefore studying AKAP95 in these contexts provides insight into its potential as a biomarker or therapeutic target in these pathological states.

Target data

Anchoring protein that mediates the subcellular compartmentation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA type II) (PubMed : 9473338). Acts as an anchor for a PKA-signaling complex onto mitotic chromosomes, which is required for maintenance of chromosomes in a condensed form throughout mitosis. Recruits condensin complex subunit NCAPD2 to chromosomes required for chromatin condensation; the function appears to be independent from PKA-anchoring (PubMed : 10601332, PubMed : 10791967, PubMed : 11964380). May help to deliver cyclin D/E to CDK4 to facilitate cell cycle progression (PubMed : 14641107). Required for cell cycle G2/M transition and histone deacetylation during mitosis. In mitotic cells recruits HDAC3 to the vicinity of chromatin leading to deacetylation and subsequent phosphorylation at 'Ser-10' of histone H3; in this function may act redundantly with AKAP8L (PubMed : 16980585). Involved in nuclear retention of RPS6KA1 upon ERK activation thus inducing cell proliferation (PubMed : 22130794). May be involved in regulation of DNA replication by acting as scaffold for MCM2 (PubMed : 12740381). Enhances HMT activity of the KMT2 family MLL4/WBP7 complex and is involved in transcriptional regulation. In a teratocarcinoma cell line is involved in retinoic acid-mediated induction of developmental genes implicating H3 'Lys-4' methylation (PubMed : 23995757). May be involved in recruitment of active CASP3 to the nucleus in apoptotic cells (PubMed : 16227597). May act as a carrier protein of GJA1 for its transport to the nucleus (PubMed : 26880274). May play a repressive role in the regulation of rDNA transcription. Preferentially binds GC-rich DNA in vitro. In cells, associates with ribosomal RNA (rRNA) chromatin, preferentially with rRNA promoter and transcribed regions (PubMed : 26683827). Involved in modulation of Toll-like receptor signaling. Required for the cAMP-dependent suppression of TNF-alpha in early stages of LPS-induced macrophage activation; the function probably implicates targeting of PKA to NFKB1 (By similarity).
