Abstract excerpt
An alternative in vivo assay, based on growth inhibition of yeast expressing an individual mammalian protein kinase C (PKC) isoform (proportional to the degree of PKC activation), was used to characterize the activities of phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and its analogues on classical (alpha and betaI), novel (delta and eta) and atypical (zeta) PKC isoforms. Effects of PMA, 4alpha-PMA,...
