Abstract excerpt
We report here that the novel protein kinase C isoform, PKCdelta, is required at or prior to the level of the mitochondria for apoptosis induced by a diverse group of cell toxins. We have used adenoviral expression of a kinase-dead (KD) mutant of PKCdelta to explore the requirement for PKCdelta in the mitochondrial-dependent apoptotic pathway. Expression of PKCdeltaKD, but not PKCalphaKD, in salivary epithelial...
