Description:
Autocamtide-2 is a highly selective synthetic peptide substrate for Ca2+/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II (CaMKII) derived from the autophosphorylation site of the a subunit of CaMKII (1). The presence of basic arginine and lysine residues makes it suitable for kinase assays using the phosphocellulose paper binding method (2,3). CaMKII phosphorylates Autocamtide-2 with Km of 2 µM. Autocamtide-2 is not a substrate for PKA; Km > 50 µM for PKC (1).

Amino Acid Sequence: KKALRRQETVDAL (Lys-Lys-Ala-Leu-Arg-Arg-Gln-Glu-Thr-Val-Asp-Ala-Leu)

Supplied in: Milli-Q™ water.

Molecular Weight:
Theoretical: 1,527 daltons


Reaction & Storage Conditions


Concentration:
10 mg/ml

-20°C


Notes


General notes:
  1. Autocamtide-2 is not a recommended substrate to study the inhibition of CaMKII with AIP (Autocamtide-2-related Inhibitory Peptide, NEB #P6063) which is competitive with Autocamtide-2 (4).
Usage notes:
  1. Suggested Working Concentration: Dilution of the supplied solution (10 mg/ml = 6.5 mM) to a final concentration of 100 µM is recommended.

Quality Control for Current Lot
