Protein kinase C in Trypanosoma cruzi epimastigote forms: partial purification and characterization

A protein kinase C activity from epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi was characterized. Cytosolic extracts were chromatographed on DEAE-cellulose columns giving two peaks of kinase activity which were eluted at 0.1 and 0.15 M NaCl. The first activity peak requires Ca2+ and phosphatidylserine for...
