Summary
Enables double-stranded DNA binding activity; protein kinase A regulatory subunit binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to lipopolysaccharide; cellular response to prostaglandin E stimulus; and negative regulation of tumor necrosis factor production. Predicted to act upstream of or within mitotic chromosome condensation. Located in nuclear matrix. Orthologous to human AKAP8 (A-kinase anchoring protein 8).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
