Substituent direction is important : Type A–D isobenzofuranone derivatives were synthesized with differently directed hydrophobic alkyl side chains. These ligands bind in a similar conformation to protein kinase Cα but have contrasting activation abilities, possibly owing to different interaction of the side chain with the membrane lipid.
