Abstract excerpt
Curcumin is a polyphenolic nutraceutical that acts on multiple biological targets, including protein kinase C (PKC). PKC is a family of serine/threonine kinases central to intracellular signal transduction. We have recently shown that curcumin selectively inhibits PKCα, but not PKCε, in CHO-K1 cells [Pany, S. (2016) Biochemistry 55, 2135-2143]. To understand which domain(s) of PKCα is responsible for curcumin...
