| abstractText | Protein kinase D 3 (PKD3) is a member of the PKD family that has been linked to many intracellular signaling pathways. However, defined statements regarding isoform specificity and in vivo functions are rare. Here, we use mouse embryonic fibroblast cells that are genetically depleted of PKD3 to identify isoform-specific functions. We show that PKD3 is involved in the regulation of the cell cycle by modulating microtubule nucleation and dynamics. In addition we also show that PKD1 partially can compensate for PKD3 function. Taken together our data provide new insights of a specific PKD3 signaling pathway by identifying a new function, which has not been identified before. |
