Protein kinase A effects of an expressed PRKAR1A mutation associated with aggressive tumors.

TL;DR: It is concluded that R1 alpha Delta 6 leads to increased PKA activity through the mt-R1 alpha decreased binding to C alpha and does not involve changes in other PKA subunits, suggesting that a switch to type II PKAactivity is not necessary for increased kinase activity or tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene expression profiling during cellular differentiation in the embryonic pituitary gland using cDNA microarrays

TL;DR: This is the first study to evaluate changes in anterior pituitary gene expression during embryonic development of any species using microarrays, and numerous transcription factors and signaling molecules not previously implicated in pituitARY development were identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mouse Prkar1a haploinsufficiency leads to an increase in tumors in the Trp53+/− or Rb1+/− backgrounds and chemically induced skin papillomas by dysregulation of the cell cycle and Wnt signaling

TL;DR: PKR1a haploinsufficiency is a relatively weak tumorigenic signal that can act synergistically with other tumor suppressor gene defects or chemicals to induce tumors, mostly through Wnt-signaling activation and cell cycle dysregulation, consistent with studies in human neoplasms carrying PRKAR1A defects.
