Application
Kinase activity is measured as the molar amount of phosphate incorporated into the CREBtide substrate peptide per minute per mg protein at 30 °C using a final concentration of 50 μM [32P] ATP.
Biochem/physiol Actions
PKCι is a member of the protein kinase C family of serine-threonine kinases. Overexpression of PKCι increases the resistance of cells to apoptosis, improves mitochondrial function and reduces activity of caspases. PKCλ plays a prominent role in regulation of glucose-induced insulin secretion.
