title: Five isoenzymes of protein kinase C are expressed in normal and STZ-diabetic rat hepatocytes: effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate.
abstract: Using isoenzyme-specific antisera, five Protein Kinase Cs (PKCs) were detected in cytosol and membrane hepatocytes from normal rats: PKC alpha (80 kDa), PKC beta II (40, 50, 55, 85 kDa), PKC delta (74, 76 kDa), PKC epsilon (95 kDa), PKC zeta (65, 70 kDa). STZ-diabetes induced a lower expression of the five PKCs, a higher localization in the cytosol, a preferential expression of PKC delta as the 76 kDa phosphorylated species and a decreased kinase activity towards Histone III-S. A 1 microM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) incubation induced similar translocation to the membrane of PKCs alpha, native 85 kDa beta II and epsilon. The 74 kDa PKC delta was switched to the 76 kDa species, the normal form in STZ-diabetic cells. The truncated PKC beta II and PKC epsilon were unchanged.
