Structured disease, protein, and project context should read before the lower-level identity rail.

As of 2026-09-14

cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) shows clinical signal disease relevance led by cancer. 1 linked drug keeps the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt P22694. Start with cancer, then reuse UniProt P22694 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) shows clinical signal disease relevance led by cancer. 1 linked drug remains visible in the same block.

Start review with cancer because it currently carries clinical signal support. Linked drugs include GSK-690693. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
