Biochem/physiol Actions

Reversible: no

Primary TargetProtein kinase C

Cell permeable: yes

General description

Cell-permeable activator of protein kinase C; however, it has lower affinity for PKCa than for other isozymes. Shown to mimic the effects of tumor-promoting phorbol diesters on mitogenesis and epidermal growth factor binding and action in intact cells.
