Members of the Protein Kinase C (PKC) family of homologous serine/threonine protein kinases are involved in a number of processes such as cell growth, cell differentiation, and cytokine secretion. PKCs are activated by Ca2+, phospholipids, diacylglycerol, phorbol esters, and proteolysis. PRK1 (PKC-Related Kinase 1, also named PKN) was originally identified in human hippocampus as a novel protein kinase with sequence homology to PKC. PRK1 contains 942 amino acids with an apparent molecular weight of 120 kDa. Although activated by limited proteolysis, PRK1 is not activated by Ca2+/diacylglycerol or phorbol esters. However, PRK1 is activated by phospholipids and arachidonic acid. PRK1 may regulate cytoskeletal changes since it binds to Rho-GTP and becomes phosphorylated in vivo, coincidentally with the formation of focal adhesions and stress fibers. Synonyms: PKN
