A novel method for viral display of ER membrane proteins on budded baculovirus.

abstract：:Protein, mRNA and activity levels of the calcium-independent protein kinase C (nPKC) isoenzymes were examined in NG108-15 cells. Western blot analyses reveal that proliferating NG 108-15 cells express the delta, epsilon, and eta, but not the theta species. The atypical species PKC zeta was also detected. Differentiati...
