Enzyme Information

2.7.11.13
Protein kinase C.
based on mapping to UniProt P24723
ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.
-!- 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- signaling pathways. -!- Members of the protein kinase C family also serve as major receptors for phorbol esters, a class of tumor promoters. -!- Formerly EC 2.7.1.37.
