Peptide Name: CaMK2a (282-289) pT286

Product Use: Services as a blocking peptide for use with the CaMK2a-pT286 rabbit polyclonal antibody (Cat. No.: AB-PK555) that is also available from Kinexus. This phosphopeptide may also be useful as a substrate for screening the phosphatase activity of protein phosphatases. The peptide sequence is located in the region between the kinase catalytic domain and the CamKII-AD domains. The major site of in vivo phosphorylation of CaMK2a. T286 phosphorylation stimulates calcium/calmodulin-independent phosphotransferase activity and regulates cell growth, intracellular location, molecular association, including inducing interaction with GIT1 and MAP2, and inhibiting interaction with MBP and neurogranin.

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
