[Structure and functional features of enzymes from the Ca2+-phospholipid-dependent protein kinase family].

Present day scientific data about the Ca(2+)-phospholipid-dependent protein kinases structure and molecular mechanisms of their activity are summarized and analyzed in this review. Ca(2+)-phospholipid-dependent protein kinases family is well known to include a whole series of enzymes which are homologous by their structure. They play an important role in cell differentiation, growth and proliferation as well as signal transduction through the cytoplasmic membrane. They also take part in cell response realization by phosphorylation of target proteins. Now application of modern biochemical and biophysical methods provided for possibility of the clarification of these enzymes structure features. The great lot of experimental data about the molecular mechanisms of Ca(2+)-phospholipid-dependent protein kinases activity regulation by phosphatydyle serine, phorbol ethers, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, calcium iones, autophosphorylation and holoferment phosphorylation by other kinases was obtained. As a model of Ca(2+)-phospholipide-dependent protein kinases regulation was their development on the base of the scientific data about this problem.
