Conjugation:
Unconjugated
Alternative Names:
Protein kinase C zeta type, nPKC-zeta, PRKCZ, PKC2, PKC zeta
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, Bii and gamma) and novel (n) PKC isoforms (delta, epsilon , zeta, eta and theta). Patterns of expression for each PKC isoform differs 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 Ca++. On the other hand, nPKC delta and epsilon, as well as all of the cPKC members, possess phorbol ester-binding activities and kinase activities
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
Form:
Rabbit IgG, 1mg/ml in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol, pH7.2
