Visual stimulation reduces EEG activity in man.

abstract：:Protein kinase C (PKC) is a family of serine/threonine kinases comprised of 10 isoforms. Although commercial antibodies are available for all 10 isoforms, the specificity of these antibodies has been questioned. We have identified immunoblot conditions in which commercially purchased PKC antibodies are specific for th...
