Protein
Protein kinase C-like 3
Organism
Caenorhabditis elegans
Function
Required for the normal progression of embryogenesis and viability of the organism (PubMed:9422779). Plays an indispensable role in establishing embryonic polarity and in recruiting and maintaining par-6 to the periphery, through interaction with par-3 (PubMed:9716526, PubMed:9834192). Required for epithelial cell polarity in the distal spermatheca (PubMed:15151982). Phosphorylates serine residues of num-1 (PubMed:11134025). Required for the expression of antimicrobial peptide nlp-29 in response in response to fungal infection or physical injury (PubMed:19380113).
Similarity
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. PKC subfamily.
