Membrane fractions enriched in transverse tubules, either predominantly free or junctional, sarcoplasmic reticulum subfractions and purified sarcolemmal preparations have been isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle and examined for their contents of protein kinase C. Using activity measurements and immunoblotting methods, we have been able to detect substantial amounts of endogenous protein kinase C in T-tubules membranes and to a lesser extent, in muscle sarcolemma. Protein kinase C was found to be highest in junctional T-tubules and to be virtually absent from sarcoplasmic reticulum-derived membrane fractions. Immunofluorescence staining of muscle fibers is consistent with a T-tubule localization of the kinase. The T-tubule-associated protein kinase C enzyme phosphorylates several potentially important membrane proteins.

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.
