mPKC

mPKC, or membrane-associated protein kinase C, is an enzyme involved in cell signaling. It helps cells respond to various signals—like changes in the environment or messages from other cells—by activating or modifying proteins inside the cell. This process influences important functions such as cell growth, movement, and survival. mPKC is anchored near the cell membrane, allowing it to quickly detect and respond to signals. Overall, mPKC acts as a critical communicator within the cell, helping it adapt to its surroundings and maintain proper function.
