Cells respond to environmental cues by mobilizing signal transduction enzymes. Spatial organization provided by scaffolding proteins guides this flow of molecular information to particular subcellular sites.
The Scott lab researches how spatial organization of key regulatory enzymes influences cellular behavior. They have pioneered the investigation of A-Kinase Anchoring proteins (AKAPs), a burgeoning family of organizational proteins that precisely position cell signaling enzymes inside cells. A multidisciplinary team of biochemists, cell biologists and pharmacologists work closely with physicians to investigate what happens when AKAP signaling goes awry in diseases such as endocrine disorders, cardiovascular disease, and adolescent cancers.
