1 The formation of this transient core complex depends on binary interactions with PKA subunits, cAMP levels and cellular GTP-loading accounting for bidirectional consequences on PKA and Rac downstream signaling. Guanosine Triphosphate AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
2 We show that GTP-Rac stabilizes the inactive PKA holoenzyme. Guanosine Triphosphate AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
3 However, beta-adrenergic receptor-mediated activation of GTP-Rac-bound PKA routes signals to the Raf-Mek-Erk cascade, which is critically implicated in cell proliferation. Guanosine Triphosphate AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
4 We describe a further mechanism of how cAMP enhances nuclear Erk1/2 signaling: It emanates from transphosphorylation of p21-activated kinases in their evolutionary conserved kinase-activation loop through GTP-Rac compartmentalized PKA activities. Guanosine Triphosphate AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
5 Our findings offer additional mechanistic insights how beta-adrenergic receptor-controlled PKA activities enhance GTP-Rac-mediated activation of nuclear Erk1/2 signaling. Guanosine Triphosphate AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 Homo sapiens
