Disease relevance of AKAP8

  • A fragment covering amino acids 414-692 of human AKAP95 was expressed in Escherichia coli and shown to bind RIIalpha [1].
  • HA95, a nuclear protein homologous to AKAP95, has been identified in immune precipitates of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) coactivating nuclear protein EBNA-LP from EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cells (LCLs) [2].

Physical interactions of AKAP8

  • AKAP95 interacts with Xenopus XCAP-H condensin subunit in vitro and in vivo but not with the human hCAP-D2 subunit [10].
  • Competition with a peptide covering the RII-binding domain of AKAP Ht31 abolished RIIalpha binding to AKAP95 [1].
