We recently reported that diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) α enhanced tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-induced activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). However, the signaling pathway between DGKα and NF-κB remains unclear. Here, we found that small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of DGKα strongly attenuated protein kinase C (PKC) ζ-dependent phosphorylation of a large subunit of NF-κB, p65/RelA, at Ser311 but not PKCζ-independent phosphorylation at Ser468 or Ser536. Moreover, knockdown and overexpression of PKCζ suppressed and synergistically enhanced DGKα-mediated NF-κB activation, respectively. These results strongly suggest that DGKα positively regulates TNF-α-dependent NF-κB activation via the PKCζ-mediated Ser311 phosphorylation of p65/RelA.
