Peptide Name: PKG1 (518-527) pT521+pY524

Product Use: This phosphopeptide may be useful as a substrate for screening the phosphatase activity of protein phosphatases. The peptide sequence is located in the protein kinase catalytic domain activation T loop region between subdomains VII and VIII. T521 and Y524 phosphorylation are predicted to be inhibitory for phosphotransferase activity.

Scientific Background: PKG1 (PRKG1) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the AGC group and PKG family. It is activated by cGMP, which is generated in response to nitric oxide. Phosphorylation at T59 increases phosphotransferase activity and its affinity for cGMP Phosphorylation at T517 increases phosphotransferase activity. An R177Q mutation in AAT8 results in a constitutively active form of PKG1, which also has reduced cGMP binding.
