Protein kinase C delta (PKCd) is a member of the protein kinase C (PKC) family of serine-threonine kinases. It is a 79 kd protein kinase that shows strict dependence on the presence of phospholipids, but shows no activation by Ca2+ . Phosphatidylinositol is the most potent activator of PKC delta. Northern blot analysis indicated that PKCdelta is widely distributed in almost all the tissues and is a major isoform of PKC expressed in hemopoietic cells . PKCdelta is involved in fundamental cellular functions regulated by diacylglycerols and mimicked by phorbol esters.
