General description
Protein kinase Cd (UniProt: Q05655; also known as EC:2.7.11.13, nPKC-delta) is encoded by the PRKCD gene (Gene ID: 5580) in human. PKC d is a ubiquitous serine/threonine kinase involved in signal transduction associated with cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. It is a calcium-independent, phospholipid- and diacylglycerol (DAG)-dependent novel PKC enzyme that plays contrasting roles in cell death and cell survival by functioning as a pro-apoptotic protein during DNA damage-induced apoptosis but acting as an anti-apoptotic protein during cytokine receptor-initiated cell death. It is shown to negatively regulate B cell proliferation and is also involved in self-antigen induced B cell tolerance induction. Upon DNA damage, PKCd activates the promoter of the death-promoting transcription factor BCLAF1/Btf to trigger BCLAF1-mediated p53/TP53 gene transcription and apoptosis. In the case of ER stress or DNA damage-induced apoptosis, it can form a complex with the tyrosine-protein kinase ABL1 which trigger apoptosis independently of p53/TP53. In cytosol it can trigger apoptosis by activating MAPK11 or MAPK14 and inhibiting Akt1 and decreasing the level of XIAP. Phosphorylation at three specific sites: threonine 507, serine 645, and serine 664 is required for its full activation. PKCd is proteolytically cleaved into a catalytic subunit (aa 330-676) and a regulatory subunit (aa 1-329) by caspase-3 during apoptosis which results in kinase activation. As a result of this cleavage the pseudosubstrate motif in the regulatory subunit is released from the substrate recognition site of the catalytic subunit, which enables its activation. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
