Protein Kinase C mu, is a ~140 kDa member of the novel group (nPKCs: sensitive to diacylglycerol, phosphatidylserine, and phorbol esters) of the PKC family of serine/threonine kinases that are involved in a wide range of physiological processes including mitogenesis, cell survival, metastasis and transcriptional regulation. PKC mu (also known as Protein Kinase D or PKD) is implicated in the regulation of multiple cellular processes including Golgi organization and membrane transport in epithelial cells. PKC mu is phosphorylated on serine 742 (serine 748 for the mouse sequence) in the activation loop in a PKC-dependent pathway, mainly by PKC eta and PKC epsilon. This is critical for its catalytic activity, substrate phosphorylation and role in activating the ERK1 MAP Kinase signaling cascade. Protein kinases are enzymes that transfer a phosphate group from a phosphate donor, generally the g phosphate of ATP, onto an acceptor amino acid in a substrate protein. By this basic mechanism, protein kinases mediate most of the signal transduction in eukaryotic cells, regulating cellular metabolism, transcription, cell cycle progression, cytoskeletal rearrangement and cell movement, apoptosis, and differentiation. With more than 500 gene products, the protein kinase family is one of the largest families of proteins in eukaryotes.Synonyms: PKC D1, PKC mu, PKD, PKD1, PRKCM, Protein kinase C mu type, Protein kinase D, Serine/threonine-protein kinase D1, nPKC-D1, nPKC-mu
