Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The effect on fatty acid metabolism by the mutation in protein kinase A enzyme must be determined.

Concept introduction:

Protein kinase A (PKA) is a cAMP-dependent enzyme, which is various functions in the regulation of glycogen, lipid, and carbohydrate metabolism. It regulates the activity of various enzymes by phosphorylating them at specific amino acid sites. Phosphorylation is done in the presence of ATP, which acts as phosphoryl group transfer.
