Abstract excerpt
Conventional protein kinase C (cPKC) isoforms are activated by a coincident rise in cytosolic Ca(2+) and membrane-bound diacylglycerol. In excitable cells, cPKC may be activated by Ca(2+) influx through voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels (VGCC). cPKCs, in turn, are known to modulate the activity of VGCC. We examined whether PKCalpha, a cPKC, could be activated by depolarization in a neuroendocrine cell line and...
