This member of the AKAP family, designated mAKAP, anchors both PDE and the regulatory subunit  of PKA to the nuclear membrane, maintaining them in a negative feedback loop that provides close local control of the ATP level and PKA activity.

B- The basal level of PDE activity in the presence of hormone (resting state) keeps cAMP levels below those necessary for PKA activation. 

C- Activation of β-adrenergic receptors causes an increase in cAMP to a level in excess of that which can be degraded by PDE. 

D- The resulting binding of cAMP to the R subunits of PKA releases the active catalytic (C) subunits into the cytosol. Some C subunits enter the nucleus, where they phosphorylate and thus activate certain transcription factors . Other C subunits phosphorylate PDE, stimulating its catalytic activity.

E-  Active PDE hydrolyzes cAMP, thereby driving cAMP levels back to basal levels and causing re-formation of the inactive PKA C-R complex. Subsequent de-phosphorylation of PDE returns the complex to the resting state.

In a shooting competition, the probability of hitting the target by A is 2/5, by B is 2/3 and by C is 3/5. If all of them fire independently at the same target, calculate the probability that only one of them will hit the target.
