Abstract

|
Testis brain RNA-binding protein (TB-RBP) is a DNA/RNA binding protein. TB-RBP is mainly expressed in testis and brain and highly conserved protein with several functions, including chromosomal translocations, DNA repair, mitotic cell division, and mRNA transport, stabilization, and storage. In our previous study, we identified TB-RBP as an interacting partner for the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A(PKA) and verified their interaction with several biochemical analyses. Here, we confirmed interaction between . and TB-RBP in mammalian cells and determined the effect of . on the function of TB-RBP. The activation of . increased the TB-RBP function as a DNA-binding protein. These results suggest that the function of TB-RBP can be modulated by PKA and provide insights into the diverse role of PKA.
