Biochem/physiol Actions: | PRKCZ (Protein kinase C ζ) is involved in a variety of cellular processes including cell proliferation, cell motility, and cell survival. It acts as a regulatory molecule in the insulin signaling pathways. It has been suggested that PRKCZ performs downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) in the insulin signal pathway for the translocation of GLUT4-encoded protein. It has also been reported that PRKCZ may act as a negative regulator by phosphorylating insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), which restricts its ability to activate phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase in response to insulin. It has been documented that PRKCZ might be involved in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). PRKCZ also has been reported to be part of various signaling pathways such as ERK/MAPK activation pathway, p70 ribosomal S6 kinase signaling cascade, activation of transcription factor NF-κB. It also plays a role in the regulation of cell polarity. Study predicts that PRKCZ may have a role in the ovarian cancer progression. |

General description: | Protein kinase C (PKC) zeta is a member of the PKC family of serine/threonine kinases which are involved in a variety of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation and secretion. Unlike the classical PKC isoenzymes which are calcium-dependent, PKC zeta exhibits a kinase activity which is independent of calcium and diacylglycerol but not of phosphatidylserine. Furthermore, it is insensitive to typical PKC inhibitors and cannot be activated by phorbol ester. Unlike the classical PKC isoenzymes, it has only a single zinc finger module. These structural and biochemical properties indicate that the zeta subspecies is related to, but distinct from other isoenzymes of PKC. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. (provided by RefSeq) |
