Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryProtein kinase C (PKC) is a family of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases that can be activated by calcium and the second messenger diacylglycerol. PKC family members phosphorylate a wide variety of protein targets and are known to be involved in diverse cellular signaling pathways. PKC family members also serve as major receptors for phorbol esters, a class of tumor promoters. Each member of the PKC family has a specific expression profile and is believed to play a distinct role in cells. The protein encoded by this gene is one of the PKC family members. It is a calcium-independent and phospholipids-dependent protein kinase. It is predominantly expressed in epithelial tissues and has been shown to reside specifically in the cell nucleus. This protein kinase can regulate keratinocyte differentiation by activating the MAP kinase MAPK13 (p38delta)-activated protein kinase cascade that targets CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (CEBPA). It is also found to mediate the transcription activation of the transglutaminase 1 (TGM1) gene.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P24723 # PKC is activated by diacylglycerol which in turn phosphorylates a range of cellular proteins. PKC also serves as the receptor for phorbol esters, a class of tumor promoters.
SIZE: 682 amino acids; 77563 Da
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Most abundant in lung, less in heart and skin.
DOMAIN: SwissProt: P24723 The C1 domain, containing the phorbol ester/DAG-type region 1 (C1A) and 2 (C1B), is the diacylglycerol sensor and the C2 domain is a non-calcium binding domain.
DISEASE: SwissProt: P24723 # Defects in PRKCH may be a cause of susceptibility to ischemic stroke [MIM:601367]; also known as cerebrovascular accident or cerebral infarction. A stroke is an acute neurologic event leading to death of neural tissue of the brain and resulting in loss of motor, sensory and/or cognitive function. Ischemic strokes, resulting from vascular occlusion, is considered to be a highly complex disease consisting of a group of heterogeneous disorders with multiple genetic and environmental risk factors.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. PKC subfamily. & Contains 1 AGC-kinase C-terminal domain. & Contains 1 C2 domain. & Contains 2 phorbol-ester/DAG-type zinc fingers. & Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

FAQ

QuestionAnswer
Why is it important to shake the reaction mixture during the incubations?It is important to shake the reaction mixture during incubations so that the substrate and the enzyme get good interaction. If you do not have access to a shaking incubator, use a water bath for the incubations, removing the tubes regularly to vortex.
What type of buffer is best for lysis when attempting to preserve a protein?The best buffer is Buffer A. It is composed of 50mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.5, 1mM EGTA, 1mM EDTA, 1mM Sodium Orthovanadate (activated), 10mM Na B-glycerolphosphate, 50mM NaF, 5mM Na pyrophosphate, 1% w/v Triton X-100, 0.1% w/v 2-mercaptoethanol, 1ug/ml each of aprotinin, leupeptin and pepstatin, 1mM PMSF and 1mM microcystin (this is optional). QS with water. You may store Buffer A in aliquots at -20°C for 6 months.
What is the Molar extinction coefficient for Adenosine 5'-[g32P]triphosphate ([g32P]ATP) used in the kinase assay?The Molar extinction coefficient is 15400.
What is the best way to store and thaw enzymes?In order to maintain activity of enzymes, we recommend a slow thaw and aliquot storage. To do this, remove the full vial from the freezer and place under cold running tap water. Once thawed, place the vial on ice, gently mix, than make aliquots. Using liquid nitrogen or an ethanol/dry ice bath, flash freeze the aliquots. Store aliquots at the recommended temperature.
When using p81 paper (phosphocellulose squares), what is the purpose of the acetone wash?The purpose of washing the p81 squares in acetone is mostly to help them dry faster, but it also can help to eliminate low specificity binding.
Some of my enzyme preparations require Brij-35, what is its purpose?The role of Brij-35 is to function as a mild detergent, which prevents aggregation in active kinases.
