Peptide Name: KinSub4RRDSP
Product Use: For assaying the phosphotransferase activity of Cyclin-dependent protein-serine kinase 5 (CDK5, UniProt ID Q00535). The KinSub4RRDSP peptide demonstrated very high phosphotransferase activity with CHK2, and exhibited very low 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: KinSub4RRDSP 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.

Scientific Background: CDK5 is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the CMGC group and CDK family. It is required for cell cycle arrest in neuronal cells. It is activated by binding p35 protein. Phosphorylation at S159 increases phosphotransferase activity. Phosphorylation at T14 and Y15 inhibits phosphotransferase activity. CDK5 has been observed to be proline-directed and to phosphorylate SRC, NOS3, VIM/vimentin, p35/CDK5R1, MEF2A, SIPA1L1, SH3GLB1, PXN, PAK1, MCAM/MUC18, SEPT5, SYN1, DNM1, AMPH, SYNJ1, CDK16, RAC1, RHOA, CDC42, TONEBP/NFAT5, MAPT/TAU, MAP1B, histone H1, p53/TP53, HDAC1, APEX1, PTK2/FAK1, huntingtin/HTT, ATM, MAP2, NEFH and NEFM. CDK5 has been implicated in Aneurysmal bone cyst, which is a bone cancer that will affect bone, endothelial tissue, and bone marrow.
