    This is the total active PKC. It is the sum of the respective activities of PKC-basal* PKC-Ca-memb* PKC-DAG-memb* PKC-Ca-AA* PKC-DAG-AA* PKC-AA* I treat PKC here in a two-state manner: Either it is in an active state (any one of the above list) or it is inactive. No matter what combination of stimuli activate the PKC, I treat it as having the same activity. The scaling comes in through the relative amounts of PKC which bind to the respecive stimuli. The justification for this is the mode of action of PKC, which like most Ser/Thr kinases has a kinase domain normally bound to and blocked by a regulatory domain. I assume that all the activators simply free up the kinase domain. A more general model would incorporate a different enzyme activity for each combination of activating inputs, as well as for each substrate. The current model seems to be a decent and much simpler approximation for the available data. One caveat of this way of representing PKC is that the summation procedure assumes that PKC does not saturate with its substrates. If this assumption fails, then the contributing PKC complexes would experience changes in availability which would affect their balance. Given the relatively low percentage of PKC usually activated, and its high throughput as an enzyme, this is a safe assumption under physiological conditions.

        Rate consts from Chen et al Biochem 32, 1032 (1993) k3 = 4 Km for this substrate is trickier. Specific substrates are in the uM range, so we use a higher Km here. This may be too conservative in which case PKC would have a still higher effect on raf. The presence of this phosphorylation and activation step is from Kolch et al 1993 Nature 364:249

        Rate consts are PKC generic rates. This reaction inactivates GAP. The reaction is from the Boguski and McCormick 1993 review in Nature 366:643-654 The phosphorylation Vmax is 6x higher to account for balance of GDP-Ras:GDP-Ras.

        Phorbol esters have little effect on AC1 or on the Gs-stimulation of AC2. So in this model we are only dealing with the increase in basal activation of AC2 induced by PKC k1 = 1.66e-6 k2 = 16 k3 =4
