Abstract excerpt
Protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation mediated by protein kinases and protein phosphatases, respectively, represent essential steps in a variety of vital neuronal processes that could affect susceptibility to ischemic stroke. In this study, the role of the neuron-specific gamma isoform of protein kinase C (gammaPKC) in reversible focal ischemia was examined using mutant mice in which the gene for gammaPKC...
