By combining analysis of 54 C1 domain sequences with information from previously reported solution and crystal structure determinations and site‐directed mutagenesis, profiles are derived and used to classify C1 domains.Abstract:
C1 domains are compact alpha/beta structural units of about 50 amino acids which tightly bind two zinc ions. These domains were first discovered as the loci of phorbol ester and diacylglycerol binding to conventional protein kinase C isozymes, which contain 2 C1 domains (C1A and C1B) in their N-terminal regulatory regions. We present a comprehensive list of 54 C1 domains occurring singly or doubly in 34 different proteins. Many C1 domains and C1 domain-containing proteins bind phorbol esters, but many others do not. By combining analysis of 54 C1 domain sequences with information from previously reported solution and crystal structure determinations and site-directed mutagenesis, profiles are derived and used to classify C1 domains. Twenty-six C1 domains fit the profile for phorbol-ester binding and are termed "typical." Twenty-eight other domains fit the profile for the overall C1 domain fold but do not fit the profile for phorbol ester binding, and are termed "atypical." Proteins containing typical C1 domains are predicted to be regulated by diacylglycerol, whereas those containing only atypical domains are not.read more

Regulation of protein kinase C
TL;DR: Protein kinase C has been in the spotlight since the discovery two decades ago that it is activated by the lipid second messenger diacylglycerol, but the regulation and specific roles of its isozymes in defined cellular processes are still under intense investigation.

Regulation of the ABC kinases by phosphorylation: protein kinase C as a paradigm.
TL;DR: This review focuses on how phosphorylation at each of these sites regulates the maturation, signalling and down-regulation of PKC as a paradigm for how these sites control the function of the ABC kinases.

TL;DR: RASSF1A is a potential tumor suppressor gene that undergoes epigenetic inactivation in lung and breast cancers through hypermethylation of its promoter region and is associated with impaired patient survival.

TL;DR: This review focuses on the heterogeneity within the PKC family and highlights some of the recent evidence that the isotypes might have separate and unique functions in the cell.

TL;DR: It is shown that p160 can associate physically and functionally with Rho both in vitro and in vivo, indicating that the small GTP‐binding protein Rho functions as a molecular switch in the formation of focal adhesions and stress fibers, cytokinesis and transcriptional activation.

Crystal structure of the Cys2 activator-binding domain of protein kinase Cδ in complex with phorbol ester
TL;DR: The structure of the second activator-binding domain of PKC delta has been determined in complex with phorbol 13-acetate, which binds in a groove between two pulled-apart beta strands at the tip of the domain, explaining how the activator promotes insertion of PKCs into membranes.
