Muscle contraction depends on two processes that consume enormous amounts of ATP: 

1. Filament sliding, driven by the ATPase of the myosin

2. Ca2+ pumping, driven by the Ca2+ ATPase

The phosphorylation state of T14 and Y15 is controlled by a dual-specificity protein kinase known as Wee1 and a pair of dual-specificity phosphatases, Cdc25B and Cdc25C (Threonine 14 is not phosphorylated in S. pombe CDK1)

Feedback mechanisms suppress signaling by the PKA pathway:

1. Intrinsic GTPase activity of Gαs

2. PDE acts to hydrolyze cAMP to 5′-AMP
