| UniProt functional annotation for P61926 | |||
| UniProt code: P61926. |
| Organism: | Oryctolagus cuniculus (Rabbit). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Lagomorpha; Leporidae; Oryctolagus. | |
| Function: | Extremely potent competitive inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity, this protein interacts with the catalytic subunit of the enzyme after the cAMP-induced dissociation of its regulatory chains. | |
| Miscellaneous: | The inhibitory site contains regions very similar to the hinge regions (sites that directly interact with the enzyme active site) and 'pseudosubstrate site' of the regulatory chains; but, unlike these chains, PKI does not contain cAMP-binding sites. The arginine residues within the inhibitory site are essential for inhibition and recognition of the enzyme active site. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the PKI family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
