General description
PRKCA (protein kinase C, α) is a multi-domain signaling protein. It is predominantly expressed in the cytosol and nuclei. It is a Ca2+-dependent and phospholipid-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase. It is activated by diacylglycerol.
Immunogen
Protein kinase Cα-type recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
PRKCA (protein kinase C, α) is involved in the N-terminal phosphorylation of β-catenin. PKCα phosphorylates β-catenin by interacting directly at the Ser-Thr residue positions. It essentially performs in the Bcl2 (B-cell lymphoma 2) phosphorylation as well as suppression of apoptosis. During host defense and inflammation, it acts in LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-induced macrophage functions, controlling expression of tumor necrosis factor TNF-α , interleukin IL-1 secretion, and tumoricidal activity.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Protein kinase Cα (PKCα) phosphorylates the Ser33/37/Thr41 residues of β-catenin, which lacks a typical PKCα canonical sequence, but little is known about its underlying mechanism. Here we showed that Ser33/Ser37/Thr41 of β-catenin fragments encompassing the armadillo repeats 1-5 (β-catenin1-781, β-catenin1-682
