fasta formatted sequence

Function: Targets the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) to the plasma membrane, and permits functional coupling to the L-type calcium channel. The membrane-associated form reduces epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity, whereas the free cytoplasmic form may negatively regulate ENaC channel feedback inhibition by intracellular sodium.
Cellular location: Isoform Alpha: Lateral cell membrane; Lipid- anchor. Note=Targeted predominantly to the lateral membrane. Isoform Beta: Apical cell membrane; Lipid- anchor. Note=Targeted predominantly to the apical membrane.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in brain, heart, lung, pancreas and skeletal muscle.
