" /> Protein Kinase C - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Protein Kinase C;

NCIt synonyms : EC 2.7.11.13; Protein Kinase-C;

NCIt related terms : PKC;

NCIt definition : A family of serine/threonine protein kinases that have a structurally conserved catalytic subunit and a regulatory subunit that are connected by a hinge domain.;

Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: An enzyme found throughout the body's tissues and organs. Several forms of PKC are involved in many cellular functions. PKC is being studied in the treatment of cancer.;

NCIt note : There are 3 classes of protein kinase C isozymes based on the molecular requirement for activation. Conventional isozymes need calcium ions, diacylglycerol and phospholipids for activation. Novel isozymes require diacylglycerol and are not regulated by calcium ions, while atypical isozymes require neither diacylglycerol nor calcium ions.;

Codes from synonyms : CDR0000318824; CDR0000403142;
