Incubation of purified protein kinase C (PKC) with phospholipid vesicles produced two populations of membrane-bound PKC: one population was dissociated by calcium chelation and the other was not. The second population appeared to be inserted into the membrane. The activity of membrane-inserted PKC was Ca2+-independent and was only modestly sensitive to phorbol esters. Insertion was caused by high calcium concentrations or by phorbol esters plus low calcium. These conditions correlated with those needed to activate PKC; insertion into the membrane may be a primary mechanism of PKC activation. PKC may be a long-term cell regulator which becomes inserted into the membrane upon appearance of the second messengers, calcium and diacylglycerol, and remains in an active membrane-bound state when the second messengers have been removed.
