abstract：:Protein kinase C (PKC), a family of serine/threonine kinases, plays an important role in apoptosis. Several members of the PKC family act as substrates for caspases. In addition, PKCs can also regulate caspase activation and cell death by apoptosis. The cleavage of PKCs separates the regulatory domain from the catalyt...
