Most malignant cells displayed moderate cytoplasmic staining which often was combined with additional nuclear positivity. Thyroid cancers showed strong immunoreactivity.
Most of the malignant cells displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and occasional nuclear positivity. Many renal cancers and a few cases of endometrial and hepatocellular carcinomas exhibited strong cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. Several cases of malignant lymphomas and melanomas were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
AKAP7 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
AKAP15, AKAP18
Description
A kinase (PRKA) anchor protein 7 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) family, a group of functionally related proteins that bind to a regulatory subunit (RII) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) and target the enzyme to specific subcellular compartments. AKAPs have a common RII-binding domain, but contain different targeting motifs responsible for directing PKA to distinct intracellular locations. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]
