DCP-LA Activates Cytosolic PKCε by Interacting with the Phosphatidylserine Binding/Associating Sites Arg50 and Ile89 in the C2-Like Domain

Background/Aims: The linoleic acid derivative DCP-LA selectively and directly activates PKCε. The present study aimed at understanding the mechanism of DCP-LA-induced PKCε activation. Methods: Point mutation in the C2-like domain on PKCε was carried out, and each kinase activity was monitored in PC-...
