Descriptions

PRKCA encodes for Protein kinase C (PKC) alpha type belonging to the PCKs family and is involved in various cellular processes, including cell growth, immune response, muscle contraction, and synaptic plasticity. A well-known autoinhibitory region of the PKC family is a pseudosubstrate sequence at residues 1-30 that directly interacts with and blocks the catalytic activity of the kinase domain. Subsequences of the pseudosubstrate region are the C1 domains (C1A and C1B that bind diacylglycerol (DAG)), and the C2 domain (which binds to anionic phospholipids in a Ca2+-dependent manner). The C1A (residues 31-100) domain coordinates a network of domain-domain intramolecular interactions, including direct C1A-C2 contacts. The pseudosubstrate and C1A domains function as a single functional unit and are required to maintain autoinhibition. Additionally, the absence of the C1A domain significantly increases basal activity.

3 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
cytoplasm The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
membrane A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it and attached to it.
nucleus A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.

10 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
chromatin binding Binding to chromatin, the network of fibers of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that make up the chromosomes of the eukaryotic nucleus during interphase.
diacylglycerol-dependent serine/threonine kinase activity Catalysis of the reaction
histone binding Binding to a histone, any of a group of water-soluble proteins found in association with the DNA of eukaryotic or archaeal chromosomes. They are involved in the condensation and coiling of chromosomes during cell division and have also been implicated in gene regulation and DNA replication. They may be chemically modified (methylated, acetlyated and others) to regulate gene transcription.
histone H3T6 kinase activity Catalysis of the reaction
nuclear androgen receptor binding Binding to a nuclear androgen receptor.
nuclear receptor coactivator activity A transcription coactivator activity that activates or increases the transcription of specific gene sets via binding to a DNA-bound nuclear receptor, either on its own or as part of a complex. Coactivators often act by altering chromatin structure and modifications. For example, one class of transcription coregulators modifies chromatin structure through covalent modification of histones. A second class remodels the conformation of chromatin in an ATP-dependent fashion. A third class modulates interactions of DNA-bound DNA-binding transcription factors with other transcription coregulators. A fourth class of coactivator activity is the bridging of a DNA-binding transcription factor to the general (basal) transcription machinery. The Mediator complex, which bridges sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factors and RNA polymerase, is also a transcription coactivator.
protein serine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions
protein serine/threonine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions
zinc ion binding Binding to a zinc ion (Zn).

15 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
adaptive immune response An immune response mediated by cells expressing specific receptors for antigens produced through a somatic diversification process, and allowing for an enhanced secondary response to subsequent exposures to the same antigen (immunological memory).
apoptotic process A programmed cell death process which begins when a cell receives an internal (e.g. DNA damage) or external signal (e.g. an extracellular death ligand), and proceeds through a series of biochemical events (signaling pathway phase) which trigger an execution phase. The execution phase is the last step of an apoptotic process, and is typically characterized by rounding-up of the cell, retraction of pseudopodes, reduction of cellular volume (pyknosis), chromatin condensation, nuclear fragmentation (karyorrhexis), plasma membrane blebbing and fragmentation of the cell into apoptotic bodies. When the execution phase is completed, the cell has died.
B cell activation The change in morphology and behavior of a mature or immature B cell resulting from exposure to a mitogen, cytokine, chemokine, cellular ligand, or an antigen for which it is specific.
B cell receptor signaling pathway The series of molecular signals initiated by the cross-linking of an antigen receptor on a B cell.
intracellular signal transduction The process in which a signal is passed on to downstream components within the cell, which become activated themselves to further propagate the signal and finally trigger a change in the function or state of the cell.
negative regulation of glucose transmembrane transport Any process that decreases the frequency, rate or extent of glucose transport across a membrane. Glucose transport is the directed movement of the hexose monosaccharide glucose into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
negative regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of insulin receptor signaling.
phosphorylation The process of introducing a phosphate group into a molecule, usually with the formation of a phosphoric ester, a phosphoric anhydride or a phosphoric amide.
positive regulation of angiogenesis Any process that activates or increases angiogenesis.
positive regulation of B cell receptor signaling pathway Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of signaling pathways initiated by the cross-linking of an antigen receptor on a B cell.
positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of I-kappaB kinase/NF-kappaB signaling.
positive regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor signaling pathway Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor signaling pathway activity.
post-translational protein modification The process of covalently altering one or more amino acids in a protein after the protein has been completely translated and released from the ribosome.
regulation of glucose transmembrane transport Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of glucose transport across a membrane. Glucose transport is the directed movement of the hexose monosaccharide glucose into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II.
