Protein UniProt: Q05655 Protein SigNET: Q05655 Antibody Type: Polyclonal
Antibody Host Species: Rabbit
Antibody Immunogen Source: Human PKCd (PRKCD) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04AOW95
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: SGT(pY)GKI(bA)C
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues S331 to I337; In the region between the C1_1 and kinase catalytic domain. This is the major in vivo phosphorylation sites in PKCd.
Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.This antibody was also subject to negative purification over phosphotyrosine-agarose.
Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Scientific Background: PKCd (PRKCD, PKC-delta) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase in the novel protein kinase C family. It is dependent on acidic phospholipids (e.g. phosphatidylserine) and diacylglycerol for full phosphotransferase activity, and does not require calcium. It is highly expressed and widely distributed in most tested human tissues, and is a major isoform of PKC expressed in hemopoietic cells. It is involved in promoting apoptosis, differentiation of cell types, cell growth, regulation of transcription factors, NFkB signalling induced by reactive oxygen species, and antigen presentation. PKCd is activated by phosphorylation at Y313, Y514, Y525, and S645. Phosphorylation of T507 increases phosphotransferase activity and induces degradation of PKC-delta. Phosphorylation of Y52, Y64, Y187, and Y567 inhibits phosphotransferase activity. Phosphatidylinositol is the most potent activator of PKCd. PKC delta is involved in fundamental cellular functions regulated by diacylglycerols, which is mimicked by phorbol esters. PKCd may be a tumour suppressor protein (TSP). PKCd negatively regulates cell proliferation in colon cell lines. It is also required for ErbB2-driven mammary gland tumourigenesis. Overexpression is seen in breast cancer and is associated with tamoxifen resistance. Reduced expression in MCF-7 cells is associated with a metastatic phenotype.
