Abstract

Three types of cDNA clone of the protein kinase C family termed δ, ϵ and ξ were newly identified by molecular cloning and sequence analysis. These members have a common structure that is closely related to, but clearly different from the other four known members of the family which have α-, βI-, βII- and γ-sequences, although the ξ-cDNA available at present does not contain a complete reading frame for a protein kinase C molecule. The diverse heterogeneity of the enzyme seems to be an important factor in determining the mode of response of many tissues and cell types to a variety of external stimuli.
