Peptide Name: KinSub2DDIYV
Product Use: For assaying the phosphotransferase activity of Tyrosine-protein kinase TXK (UniProt ID P42681). The KinSub2DDIYV peptide demonstrated very high phosphotransferase activity with TXK, and exhibited medium 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: KinSub2DDIYV 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.
Peptide Sequence: GGGEDDIYVCPGGGG
Peptide Modifications N Terminus: Free amino

Scientific Background: TXK is one of several protein kinases that can phosphorylate KinSub2DDIYV. Human TXK is a protein-tyrosine kinase of 527 amino acid length, with a predicted molecular mass of 61,258 Da. It is a member of the TK group of protein kinases in the Tec family. This kinase is moderate to highly expressed in most tested human tissues. Orthologues of TXK are highly conserved in mammals. TXK or RLK is a member of the TEC family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases. TXK is expressed in T-cells and is an important component of signalling pathways downstream of lymphocyte antigen receptor. TXK is phosphorylated in response to T-cell receptor stimulation and can be activated by phosphorylation by Src family kinases. However, TXK is phosphorylated independent of PI-3K activity (1). Excessive TXK protein expression is seen in patients with Behcet's disease. Over production of TXK leads to increased Th1 cell function that is involved in the pathogenesis of Behcet's disease (2).
