Peptide Name: KinSub1RPLYF

Product Use: For assaying the phosphotransferase activity of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein-serine kinase 2 alpha (CaMK2a, UniProt ID Q9UQM7). The KinSub1RPLYF peptide demonstrated low phosphotransferase activity with CaMK2b, and exhibited low specificity when assayed with over 200 other protein kinases. A listing of other kinases that show appreciable phosphotransferase activity towards this peptide are listed in Table 1.

Peptide Production Method: Solid-phase peptide synthesis

Peptide Origin: KinSub1RPLYF was originally identified using a microarray with peptides that were predicted as optimal substrates for 500 human protein kinases with a proprietary algorithm developed at Kinexus with our academic partners.

Scientific Background: CaMK2a is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the CAMK group and CAMK2 family. It is a calcium/calmodulin-activated protein kinase involved in neurotransmitter release and long term potentiation in neurons. Autophosphorylation of Thr-286 allows the kinase to switch from a calmodulin-dependent to a calmodulin-independent state
