cAMPsyklins
cAMPsyklins are a class of molecules that play a crucial role in cellular signaling pathways. They are characterized by their ability to bind to and activate a specific type of enzyme known as protein kinase A (PKA). This binding event is a fundamental mechanism by which cells respond to a wide array of external stimuli.
The primary function of cAMPsyklins is to act as allosteric activators of PKA. When a cAMPsyklin binds
The synthesis of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), a key second messenger, is regulated by enzymes called
The downstream effects of cAMPsyklin-mediated PKA activation are diverse and depend on the specific cell type
