Abstract
The importance of protein kinase C (PKC) in the regulation of cellular function was fully recognized after the discovery of diacylglycerol (DG) as an activator of PKC and that the tumor-promoting phorbol esters elicit their pleiotropic responses through binding to PKC as a phorbol ester receptor (for review see 1, 2). Both DG and phorbol ester stimulate PKC activity by increasing the affinity of the enzyme for Ca2+ and phospholipid so that the enzyme becomes active under the physiological conditions. This hypothetical scheme appears to provide a satisfactory explanation for the activation of PKC inside the cells.
