Definition: A type II cAMP-dependent protein kinase regulatory subunit that plays a role in confering CYCLIC AMP activation of protein kinase activity. It has a lower affinity for cAMP than the CYCLIC-AMP-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE RIIALPHA SUBUNIT. Binding of this subunit by A KINASE ANCHOR PROTEINS may play a role in the cellular localization of type II protein kinase A.
Other names cAMP Dependent Protein Kinase, Type 2beta Regulato; Regulatory Subunit RIIbeta, Cyclic AMP Dependent P; Cyclic AMP Dependent Protein Kinase RIIbeta Subuni; cAMP-Dependent Protein Kinase, Type 2beta-Regulato; cAMP Protein Kinase RIIbeta; Regulatory Subunit RIIbeta, Cyclic-AMP-Dependent P; RIIbeta, cAMP Protein Kinase; RII beta, cAMP Protein Kinase; Cyclic-AMP-Dependent Protein Kinase RIIbeta Subuni; Protein Kinase A, RII beta Subunit
