Gene: PRKCD
Alternate names for this Gene: ALPS3|CVID9|MAY1|PKCD|nPKC-delta
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the protein kinase C family of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases. The encoded protein is activated by diacylglycerol and is both a tumor suppressor and a positive regulator of cell cycle progression. Also, this protein can positively or negatively regulate apoptosis. Defects in this gene are a cause of autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 3
Location in Chromosome : 3p21.1
Description of this Gene: protein kinase C delta
Type of Gene: protein-coding
