PRKCQ

A gene on chromosome 10p15 that encodes a member of the protein kinase C family, which is a calcium-independent and phospholipid-dependent, serine- and threonine-specific protein kinase, that plays a key role in T-cell activation and is required for activating transcription factors NF-kappaB and AP-1, and which may link the T-cell receptor.
