| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Protein kinase C-α (PKC-α) has been reported to play roles in many different cellular processes, such as cell adhesion, cell transformation, cell cycle checkpoint and cell volume control. It has been identified as a fundamental regulator of cardiac contractility and Ca2+ handling in myocytes. |
| General description: | Protein kinase C-α (PKC-α) is a member of the PKC family of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases that can be activated by calcium and the secondary messenger diacylglycerol. The protein is expressed in the dorsal ectoderm of Xenopus. |
