Summary

Enables calcium-dependent protein kinase C activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade; protein phosphorylation; and regulation of vesicle-mediated transport. Located in several cellular components, including membrane raft; mitochondrion; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Part of protein-containing complex. Used to study hypertension. Biomarker of brain ischemia; congestive heart failure; and ischemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dilated cardiomyopathy; high grade glioma (multiple); large cell carcinoma; and reproductive organ Cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human PRKCA (protein kinase C alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
