Abstract excerpt
Proteolytic activation of protein kinase C delta (PKCdelta) has been associated with apoptosis induced by the DNA damaging agent cisplatin. In cells undergoing apoptosis, caspase-3 cleaves PKCdelta at the site DMQD downward arrowN to generate a 40-kDa catalytic fragment. We have previously shown that the PKC signal transduction pathway regulates sensitivity of human small cell lung cancer H69 cells to cisplatin....
