2.7.11.13

Accepted name:

protein kinase C

Reaction:

ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein

Other name(s):

calcium-dependent protein kinase C; calcium-independent protein kinase C; calcium/phospholipid dependent protein kinase; cPKCα; cPKCβ; cPKCγ; nPKCδ; nPKCε; nPKC; nPKC; PKC; PKCα; PKCβ; PKCγ; PKCδ; PKCε; PKCζ; Pkc1p; protein kinase Cε; STK24

Systematic name:

ATP:protein phosphotransferase (diacylglycerol-dependent)

Comments:

A family of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases that depend on lipids for activity. They can be activated by calcium but have a requirement for the second messenger diacylglycerol. Members of this group of enzymes phosphorylate a wide variety of protein targets and are known to be involved in diverse cell-signalling pathways. Members of the protein kinase C family also serve as major receptors for phorbol esters, a class of tumour promoters.
