Background Information
PKCs are a family of serine/threonine kinases involved in various processes in cells including proliferation, differentiation, cell survival, and apoptosis. PKC family is composed of three different subgroups: conventional (cPKC), the novel (nPKC) and atypical (aPKC). PKCα, β1, β2, and γ belong to cPKC, PKCδ, ε, η and θ are nPKC, whereas aPKC comprises of PKCζ and λ/ι. All PKCs consist of the N-terminal regulatory region and C-terminal catalytic region (kinase domain). PKCs are physiologically activated by various extracellular signals transduced by hormones, growth factors, cytokines or antigens. The presence of activated PKCs on internal membranes leads to the phosphorylation of various interacting proteins. (PMID: 32466765, PMID: 12417016)
