CCDC94 function by modulating the intracellular levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), which in turn activates protein kinase A (PKA). Forskolin directly stimulates adenylate cyclase, the enzyme responsible for the synthesis of cAMP from ATP, leading to an upsurge in intracellular cAMP levels. This surge in cAMP activates PKA, which then phosphorylates CCDC94, leading to its functional activation. Similarly, Isoproterenol, a beta-adrenergic agonist, and Terbutaline, a beta2-adrenergic agonist, also promote the activation of adenylate cyclase, subsequently increasing cAMP and activating PKA, which is known to phosphorylate CCDC94. Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) engages with its receptor to activate adenylate cyclase, thereby elevating cAMP levels and facilitating the activation of PKA; this series of events also culminates in the activation of CCDC94.
IBMX, Rolipram, and Anagrelide act as inhibitors of different phosphodiesterases, enzymes that degrade cAMP, thereby preventing the decrease of cAMP within the cell and ensuring sustained activation of PKA. This persistent activation of PKA can result in the continuous phosphorylation of CCDC94. Dibutyryl-cAMP and 8-Br-cAMP are cell-permeable cAMP analogs that can cross the cell membrane and directly activate PKA without the need for upstream activation of adenylate cyclase. Cilostazol, a specific phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor, also raises cAMP levels to support the activation of PKA, subsequently leading to the activation of CCDC94. Dopamine, through its action on D1-like receptors, can trigger adenylate cyclase activity, increasing cAMP levels, and promoting PKA-mediated CCDC94 activation. These chemical activators, through their varied mechanisms of action, ensure the activation of PKA and the subsequent phosphorylation and activation of the protein CCDC94.
