Background Information
The atypical protein kinase C isoform PRKC iota (PRKCI) is a member of the protein kinase C (PKC) family of serine/threonine protein kinases. PKC family comprises at least eight members, which are differentially expressed and are involved in a wide variety of cellular processes. PRKC iota is calcium-independent and phospholipid-dependent. It is not activated by phorbolesters or diacylglycerol. This kinase can be recruited to vesicle tubular clusters (VTCs) by direct interaction with the small GTPase RAB2, where this kinase phosphorylates glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPD/GAPDH) and plays a role in microtubule dynamics in the early secretory pathway. This kinase is found to be necessary for BCL-ABL-mediated resistance to drug-induced apoptosis and therefore protects leukemia cells against drug-induced apoptosis. PRKC iota plays a key role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and carcinogenesis, and it has been shown to be a human oncogene.
