Background

Protein kinase C (PKC) is a family of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases that can be activated by calcium and the second messenger diacylglycerol. PKC family members phosphorylate a wide variety of protein targets and are known to be involved in diverse cellular signaling pathways. PKC family members also serve as major receptors for phorbol esters, a class of tumor promoters. Each member of the PKC family has a specific expression profile and is believed to play a distinct role in cells. The protein encoded by this gene is one of the PKC family members. This kinase has been reported to play roles in many different cellular processes, such as cell adhesion, cell transformation, cell cycle checkpoint, and cell volume control. Knockout studies in mice suggest that this kinase may be a fundamental regulator of cardiac contractility and Ca(2+) handling in myocytes. [provided by RefSeq]

DATA IMAGES

GTX130453 IHC-Fr Image

PKC alpha antibody detects PKC alpha protein in the rod bipolar cells by immunohistochemical analysis.
Sample: Frozen sectioned adult mouse retina.
Green: PKC alpha protein stained by PKC alpha antibody (GTX130453) diluted at 1:250.
Blue: Fluoroshield with DAPI (GTX30920).

GTX130453 WB Image

Various tissue extracts (30 μg) were separated by 7.5% SDS-PAGE, and the membrane was blotted with PKC alpha antibody (GTX130453) diluted at 1:2000. The HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG antibody (GTX213110-01) was used to detect the primary antibody, and the signal was developed with Trident ECL plus-Enhanced. (GI: gastrointestinal)

GTX130453 ICC/IF Image

PKC alpha antibody detects PKC alpha protein at cell membrane and cytoplasm by immunofluorescent analysis.
Sample: HeLa cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde at RT for 15 min.
Green: PKC alpha protein stained by PKC alpha antibody (GTX130453) diluted at 1:500.
Blue: Hoechst 33342 staining.
Scale bar = 10 μm.
