Enhanced Activity of Alzheimer Disease-associated Variant of Protein Kinase Cα Drives Cognitive Decline
2021-09-20
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Exquisitely tuned activity of protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes is essential to maintaining cellular homeostasis. Whereas loss-of-function mutations are generally associated with cancer, gain-of-function variants in one isozyme, PKCα, are associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here we show that the enhanced activity of one variant, PKCα M489V, is sufficient to rewire the brain phosphop...
