PKC epsilon, NT (Protein Kinase C, epsilon Type, nPKC-epsilon, PRKCE, PKCE) (APC)

Protein 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. PKC epsilon is one of the PKC family members. This kinase has been shown to be involved in many...
