Description

AKAIN1 encodes a member of the A-kinase anchor protein (AKAP) family. The protein localizes to the outer mitochondrial membrane and anchors protein kinase A (PKA), thereby regulating PKA-mediated signaling. It also contains a putative transmembrane domain and a targeting signal for mitochondrial localization.
