Synthetic phosphopeptide derived from human PKC alpha around the phosphorylation site of Threonine 638.
Conjugation:
Unconjugated
Alternative Names:
Protein kinase C alpha type, PKC-A, PKC-alpha, PRKCA, PKCA, PRKACA
Members of the protein kinase C (PKC) family play a key regulatory role in a variety of cellular functions including cell growth and differentiation, gene expression, hormone secretion and membrane function. PKCs were originally identified as serine/threonine protein kinases whose activity was dependent on calcium and phospholipids. Diacylglycerols (DAG) and tumor promoting phorbol esters bind to and activate PKC. PKCs can be subdivided into at least two major classes including conventional (c) PKC isoforms (alpha, betaI, betaII and gamma) and novel (n) PKC isoforms (delta, epsilon, zeta, eta and theta). Patterns of expression for each PKC isoform differ among tissues and PKC family members exhibit clear differences in their cofactor dependencies. For instance, the kinase activities of nPKC delta and epsilon are independent of Ca2+.
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 96% (by SDS-PAGE).
