NCIt synonyms : Protein Kinase, cAMP-dependent, Catalytic, Gamma wt Allele;
NCIt definition : Human PRKACG wild-type allele is located within 9q13 and is approximately 2 kb in
length. This allele, which encodes cAMP-dependent protein kinase, gamma-catalytic
subunit protein, plays a role in the phosphorylation of numerous cytoplasmic and nuclear
proteins in response to activation by the signaling molecule cyclic AMP.;
NCIt note : The PRKACG gene is specifically expressed in the testis. It is believed to be a retrotransposon
derived from the PRKACA gene.;
