Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) can result from stimulation of the receptor-G protein-phospholipase C (PLCbeta) pathway. In turn, phosphorylation of PLCbeta by PKC may play a role in the regulation of receptor-mediated phosphatidylinositide (PI) turnover and intracellular Ca(2+) release. Activation of endogenous PKC by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate inhibited both Galpha(q)-coupled (oxytocin and M1 muscarinic) and Galpha(i)-coupled (formyl-Met-Leu-Phe) receptor-stimulated PI turnover by 50-100% in PHM1, HeLa, COSM6, and RBL-2H3 cells expressing PLCbeta(3). Activation of conventional PKCs with thymeleatoxin similarly inhibited oxytocin or formyl-Met-Leu-Phe receptor-stimulated PI turnover. The PKC inhibitory effect was also observed when PLCbeta(3) was stimulated directly by Galpha(q) or Gbetagamma in overexpression assays. PKC phosphorylated PLCbeta(3) at the same predominant site in vivo and in vitro. Peptide sequencing of in vitro phosphorylated recombinant PLCbeta(3) and site-directed mutagenesis identified Ser(1105) as the predominant phosphorylation site. Ser(1105) is also phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA; Yue, C., Dodge, K. L., Weber, G., and Sanborn, B. M. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 18023-18027). Similar to PKA, the inhibition by PKC of Galpha(q)-stimulated PLCbeta(3) activity was completely abolished by mutation of Ser(1105) to Ala. In contrast, mutation of Ser(1105) or Ser(26), another putative phosphorylation target, to Ala had no effect on inhibition of Gbetagamma-stimulated PLCbeta(3) activity by PKC or PKA. These data indicate that PKC and PKA act similarly in that they inhibit Galpha(q)-stimulated PLCbeta(3) as a result of phosphorylation of Ser(1105). Moreover, PKC and PKA both inhibit Gbetagamma-stimulated activity by mechanisms that do not involve Ser(1105).

D010716	Phosphatidylinositols	Derivatives of phosphatidic acids in which the phosphoric acid is bound in ester linkage to the hexahydroxy alcohol, myo-inositol. Complete hydrolysis yields 1 mole of glycerol, phosphoric acid, myo-inositol, and 2 moles of fatty acids.

D010738	Type C Phospholipases	A subclass of phospholipases that hydrolyze the phosphoester bond found in the third position of GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS. Although the singular term phospholipase C specifically refers to an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE (EC 3.1.4.3), it is commonly used in the literature to refer to broad variety of enzymes that specifically catalyze the hydrolysis of PHOSPHATIDYLINOSITOLS.

D010766	Phosphorylation	The introduction of a phosphoryl group into a compound through the formation of an ester bond between the compound and a phosphorus moiety.	Phosphorylations
D011493	Protein Kinase C	An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.

D011976	Receptors, Muscarinic	One of the two major classes of cholinergic receptors. Muscarinic receptors were originally defined by their preference for MUSCARINE over NICOTINE.

D015398	Signal Transduction	The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
