Phorbol 13-myristate is a potent activator of protein kinase C (PKC), a family of enzymes involved in regulating various cellular functions. It functions by binding to the C1 domain of PKC, leading to its translocation from the cytosol to the cell membrane, where it becomes activated. This activation triggers a cascade of phosphorylation events, ultimately modulating the activity of numerous downstream signaling molecules and transcription factors. By doing so, phorbol 13-myristate plays a role in regulating processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Its mechanism of action involves the activation of PKC, which in turn influences various cellular pathways and gene expression.
