PKAα cat Antibody (H-8) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a kappa light chain antibody specifically designed to recognize human Protein Kinase A catalytic subunit alpha (PKAα cat), also known as PRKACA or the Cα subunit. PKAα cat is a vital enzyme in the cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent signaling pathway, regulating diverse cellular processes such as metabolism, gene transcription, ion transport, and cell proliferation. Structurally, PKAα cat consists of an N-terminal domain, a catalytic domain, and a C-terminal domain, which are essential for kinase activity and interaction with regulatory subunits. Anti-PKAα cat antibody (H-8) recognizes an epitope mapped to amino acids 31-48 near the N-terminus, a region crucial for substrate recognition and binding. Post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, play a significant role in modulating PKAα cat′s activity and stability, thereby influencing PKAα cat′s ability to phosphorylate target proteins and propagate cellular signals. Upon binding of cAMP, regulatory subunits dissociate from catalytic subunits, activating PKAα cat to phosphorylate specific serine and threonine residues on substrates such as the cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB), which is pivotal for initiating gene transcription. PKAα cat interacts with various proteins, including CREB and transcription factors, facilitating regulation of gene expression and maintaining cellular homeostasis. PKAα cat monoclonal antibody (H-8) is recommended for use in multiple applications, including western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and is effective across species such as mouse, rat, and human. PKAα cat (H-8) antibody is an indispensable tool for researchers investigating intricate mechanisms of cAMP signaling and its impact on cellular physiology, as well as for developing therapeutic strategies targeting dysregulated PKA activity in various diseases.
