This peptide is derived from the V1 domain of protein kinase C (PKC)d. It inhibits phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced PKCd translocation and activation. Inhibition of PKCd reduces ischemia damage in cardiac and cerebral cells, induces proliferation of fibroblasts, and inhibits graft coronary artery disease in mice.
