Product Description | Autocamtide-2 is a highly selective peptide substrate for calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), which belongs to the CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. The sequence derives from the Thr-286 autophosphorylation site of the alpha subunit of CaMKII. Autocamtide-2 contains the R-X-X-S/T consensus site surrounded by basic residues for improved binding to phosphocellulose. The fluorescent and biotinylated peptides are used to design assays for CaMKs. |
