pkcε inhibitor peptide acetate

PKCε Inhibitor Peptide acetate is a selective PKCε inhibitor containing the site for its specific receptor for activated C kinase (RACK). PKCε Inhibitor Peptide acetate inhibits the translocation of PKCε, but not α-, β-, and δPKC.

Protein kinase C (PKC ) is a calcium-independent, phospholipid- and diacylglycerol-dependent serine/threonine kinase involved in diverse signaling pathways, including those involved in neuronal signaling, cytoskeletal function, and inflammation.[1] PKC inhibitor peptide is a synthetic peptide corresponding to an amino acid sequence found in the amino terminal C2 domain of most mammalian forms of PKC .[2] It selectively and reversibly inhibits the translocation of PKC to intracellular membranes, blocking activation.[2] PKC inhibitor peptide is commonly used in cells to evaluate the role of PKC in various cellular responses.[3],[4],[5]
