Descrizione
The dependence of PKCα activity on phosphatidylserine (POPS) concentration in lipid vesicles reveals that PIP2 lowers the threshold of phosphatidylserine needed for enzyme activation.

Figure 1
The crystal structure of the PKCα C2 domain bound to calcium, phosphatidylserine, and PIP2 in a quaternary complex is rendered, showing the spatial arrangement of lipid-binding sites.

Figure 2
PKCα enzymatic activity is plotted as a function of calcium concentration, demonstrating how PIP2 reduces the calcium requirement for maximal kinase activation.

Figure 4
PKCα activity is shown as a function of diacylglycerol (DOG) molar percentage in lipid vesicles, illustrating the cofactor requirements for kinase activation.

Figure 5
The relationship between PIP2 concentration and PKCα activity demonstrates that increasing PIP2 in lipid vesicles progressively enhances kinase activation efficiency.
