The epsilon isoform of protein kinase C (PKC epsilon) has important roles in the function of the cardiac, immune and nervous systems. As a result of its diverse actions. PKC epsilon is the target of active drug-discovery programmes. A major research locus is to identify signalling cascades that include PKC epsilon and the substrates that PKC epsilon regulates. In the present review, we identify and discuss those proteins that have been conclusively shown to be direct substrates of PKC epsilon by the best currently available means. We will also describe binding partners that anchor PKC epsilon near its substrates. We review the consequences of substrate phosphorylation and discuss cellular mechanisms by which target specificity is achieved. We begin with a brief overview of the biology of PKC epsilon and methods for substrate identification, and proceed with a discussion of substrate categories to identify common themes that emerge and how these may be used to guide future studies.
