Structural anatomy of Protein Kinase C C1 domain interactions with diacylglycerol and other agonists

Abstract

Protein kinase Cs (PKCs) define a central DAG-sensing node in intracellular phosphoinositide signaling pathways that regulate cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, and motility. The structures of PKC C1 domain complexes with DAG and 4 agonists reveal the molecular basis of ligand recognition and capture.
