A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) have been
proposed to regulate cAMP-dependent signaling in the cell by targeting
RII subunits of protein kinase A (PKA) to specific subcellular
compartments. RII
is the predominant PKA subtype in
adipose tissue. In gel overlay assays of C3H/10T1/2 adipocytes and
adipose tissue, RII
bound to several proteins including
a prominent 132-kDa band, which was strongly induced upon
differentiation of C3H/10T1/2 cells into adipocytes. Immunoblotting and
nuclease protection analysis of C3H/10T1/2 cellular extracts identified
this band as D-AKAP1/S-AKAP84, a putative AKAP. Immunocytochemical
analysis of C3H/10T1/2 adipocytes revealed that most of
D-AKAP1/S-AKAP84, but not RII
, was colocalized
with a mitochondrial-selective dye, MitoTracker red. These
findings were further confirmed in studies where D-AKAP1/ S-AKAP84,
but not RII
, were localized in purified mitochondria
made from C3H/10T1/2 adipocytes. Moreover, D-AKAP1, which is
upregulated after differentiation, did not recruit RII
to membrane fractions enriched in mitochondria. These results
demonstrate that D-AKAP1/S-AKAP84 does not interact with PKA in
differentiated C3H/10T1/2 adipocytes under the conditions tested.
