ActivationofPKCthroughGproteincoupledreceptor

G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) transduce a variety of signals from the extracellular environment across the plasma membrane. One of the common signaling systems utilized by GPCRs activates protein kinase C (PKC), a ubiquitous family of serine/threonine protein kinases. The pathway leading to PKC activation starts with a class of GPCRs that interact with and activate Gq G-proteins when the receptor has agonist li......阅读全文
