    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the secretory response to nutrients
  • playing an essential role for protein transport in the early secretory pathway and required to promote RAB2-mediated vesicle budding at a vesicular tubular clusters subcompartment enriched in recycling cargo
  • might play a compensatory role in TCR/CD28-induced signaling
  • indirect co-regulator of HSF1 activity and the heat shock response
  • regulates primary dendrite specification of cerebellar Purkinje cells by localizing Golgi apparatus
  • PARD6B and PRKCI control mitotic spindle orientation in polarized epithelia and, furthermore, that PRKCI coordinately regulates multiple processes to promote morphogenesis
  • functions with CDC42 and PARD6B to control apical surface positioning
  • promotes proper spindle orientation through the phosphorylation of downstream substrates, and promotes cell survival in a kinase-dependent manner
  • expression of PRKCZ and PRKCI or both are dispensable for primitive and adult hematopoietic stem cell fate determination in steady-state and stress hematopoiesis
  • phosphorylates ROCK1 and suppresses its junctional localization, thereby allowing cells to retain normally shaped apical domains
  • phosphorylates NUMB to prevent its binding to CTNND1 and AP2A1, thereby attenuating CDH1 endocytosis to maintain apicobasal polarity
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling signal transduction
    a component
  • PRKCI-PARD6A complex regulates the cytoplasmic localization of ECT2
  • like CDC42, the PARD6B/PRKCI complex controls mitotic spindle orientation during cell division to correctly position the nascent apical surface in a growing cyst (
  • FRMD6/PARD3-PRKCI-ROCK1 pathway that controls epithelial apical morphology
  • PAR polarity complex of PARD3, PARD6A, and an atypical protein kinase C (PRKCI) regulate several aspects of neuronal migration
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with RAB2
  • PNMA1
  • associates with CDK7
  • interacting with PRKCZ and PRKCQ
  • protects PARD6B from proteasomal degradation, mechanism ensuring that PARD6B is constitutively bound to and able to signal through PRKCI
  • interacting with WWC1 (WWC1 suppresses apical exocytosis through inhibition of PRKCI activity in epithelial cells)
  • interacting with CDC42 (CDC42 controls vascular network assembly through PRKCI during embryonic vasculogenesis)
  • RAC1 exchange factor TIAM1 participates in polarized cell migration with the PAR complex of PARD3, PARD6A, and PRKCI
  • PRKCI, interacts with TGFB1 receptors through PARD6A and these proteins localize to the leading edge of migrating cells
  • PARD6A-PRKCI recruitment to the premature apical membrane appears to be required for definition of apical identity of epithelial cells
  • CLASP2 directly interacted with PARD3 and was phosphorylated by PRKCI
