High impact information on PKIA

  • Consistent with this, microinjection of PKI alpha antibody into serum-starved cells prevented their subsequent cell cycle progression [1].
  • Nuclear levels of PKI alpha remained high through cell division and decreased again as cells reentered G1 [1].
  • PKI alpha expression appeared low in serum-starved cells and in cells in G1 and increased as cells progressed through S phase [1].
  • In addition, the PKI alpha F10 codon was altered to an alanine codon, and this mutation decreased its ability to inhibit C alpha kinase activity, but did not affect its ability to inhibit C alpha Y235S/F239S [2].
  • Fusions of PKI alpha with GST (70 kDa) or PKI beta 1 with maltose-binding protein (MBP) (50 kDa) remain effective at exporting complexes with C-subunit [3].
 

Biological context of PKIA

 

Anatomical context of PKIA

  • However, PKIA was specifically expressed as two transcripts of 3.3 kb and 1.5 kb in heart and skeletal muscle [4].
 

Other interactions of PKIA

  • Cloning and mapping of human PKIB and PKIG, and comparison of tissue expression patterns of three members of the protein kinase inhibitor family, including PKIA [4].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of PKIA

  • Northern-blot analysis of three PKI isoforms, including the PKIA identified previously, revealed significant differences in their expression patterns [4].
