Displacement of PKA catalytic subunit from AKAP signaling islands drives pathology in Cushing’s syndrome
2021-10-19
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (PKAc) drive the stress hormone disorder adrenal Cushing’s syndrome. Here we define mechanisms of action for the PKAc-L205R and W196R variants. Both Cushing’s mutants are excluded from A kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) signaling islands and consequently diffuse throughout the cell. Kinase-dead experiments show that PKA activity is required for cortisol hyperse...
