Uses
FMP-API-1 is an A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP)-PKA interaction inhibitor. FMP-API-1 binds to the allosteric site of PKA R subunits and increases the activity of PKA and AQP2 in PKA-knockout cell lines of renal cortical collecting ducts (mpkCCD cells). FMP-API-1 has the potential for the study of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI)[1][2].
