Engagement of the type II IFN (IFN-
) receptor results in activation of the Janus kinase-Stat pathway and induction of gene transcription via IFN-
-activated site (GAS) elements in the promoters of IFN-
-inducible genes. An important event in IFN-
-dependent gene transcription is phosphorylation of Stat1 on Ser727, which is regulated by a kinase activated downstream of the phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. Here we provide evidence that a member of the protein kinase C (PKC) family of proteins is activated downstream of the phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase and is engaged in IFN-
signaling. Our data demonstrate that PKC
is rapidly phosphorylated during engagement of the type II IFNR and its kinase domain is induced. Subsequently, the activated PKC
associates with a member of the Stat family of proteins, Stat1, which acts as a substrate for its kinase activity and undergoes phosphorylation on Ser727. Inhibition of PKC
activity diminishes phosphorylation of Stat1 on Ser727 and IFN-
-dependent transcriptional regulation via IFN-
-activated site elements, without affecting the phosphorylation of the protein on Tyr701. Thus, PKC
is activated during engagement of the IFN-
receptor and plays an important role in IFN-
signaling by mediating serine phosphorylation of Stat1 and facilitating transcription of IFN-
-stimulated genes.
