Integrated Phosphoproteomics for Identifying Substrates of Human Protein Kinase A (PRKACA) and Its Oncogenic Mutant DNAJB1–PRKACA

The DNAJB1-PRKACA fusion is the signature genetic event of fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FL-HCC), a rare but lethal liver cancer that primarily affects adolescents and young adults. A deletion fuses the first exon of the HSP40 gene (DNAJB1), with exons 2-10 of protein kinase A (PRKACA), producing the chimeric kinase DNAJB1-PKAca (J-PKAca). The HSP40 portion's scaffolding/chaperone function has been implicated in redirecting substrate...
