Biochem/physiol Actions

PKCζ (protein kinase C ζ) is a atypical PKC and works independent of Ca2+ and diacylglycerol. It is involved in MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase)-induced nuclear factor κ B activation. It also stabilizes DNA mismatch-repair proteins, participates in laeukemic cell differentiation, cell migration and chemotaxis. PKCζ have tumour suppressor as well as oncogenic properties. Upregulation of PKCζ causes apoptosis in ovarian carcinoma cells. On the other hand, absence of PKCζ decreases tumorigenic activity in a colon cancer mouse model.

To examine whether multiple protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms could interact or crosstalk, phorbol ester-insensitive atypical PKC (aPKC) zeta isoform was overexpressed in NIH3T3 cells, and the cells were stimulated with phorbol ester to activate diacylglycerol-dependent conventional (cPKC) and novel

Both tumour suppressor and oncogenic functions have been ascribed to the atypical zeta isoform of protein kinase C (PKCζ), whereas its constitutively active form PKMζ is almost exclusively expressed in the brain where it has a role in long-term memory.

p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K) is an important regulator of cell proliferation. Its activation by growth factor requires phosphorylation by various inputs on multiple sites. Data accumulated thus far support a model whereby p70S6K activation requires sequential phosphorylations at proline-directed residues
