Description
To better study the role of PKCdelta in normal function and disease, we developed an ATP analog-specific (AS) PKCdelta that is sensitive to specific kinase inhibitors and can be used to identify PKCdelta substrates. AS PKCdelta showed nearly 200 times higher affinity (Km) and 150 times higher efficiency (kcat/Km) than wild type (WT) PKCdelta toward N(6)-(benzyl)-ATP. AS PKCdelta was uniquely inhibited by 1-(tert-butyl)-3-(1-naphthyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-amine (1NA-PP1) and
