Encompassing Amino Acids: full length
Applications: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling.
Background: PKCζ is an atypical isoform of the PKC family. PKCζ is found in both particulate and soluble fractions and cannot be activated by phorbol ester. Overexpression of PKCζ and subsequent phorbol ester treatment abolished phorbol ester-induced reduction in cell proliferation (1). Overexpression of PKCζ also potentiates phorbol ester-induced mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activation in a PKC-dependent manner. PKCζ is an upstream modulator of p70S6K, an important regulator of cell proliferation (2).
