PKC zeta (PRKCZ) is serine phosphorylated downstream of ESR1 and estradiol stimulation. Serine phosphorylation is required for recruitment of RAS to the ESR1 complex, the estrogen-stimulated translocation of ERK2 to the nucleus and for entry into S phase (Castoria et al, 2004). Mutation of threonine 410, which is required for PRKCZ activation, abolishes serine phosphorylation, suggesting the enzyme autophosphorylates (Castoria et al, 2004).
