MAPKAP Kinase 2 Substrate Peptide

KKLNRTLSVA is a peptide substrate for MAPK-activated protein kinase 2, a p38 pathway effector involved in stress and inflammatory signaling. It is useful in kinase assays and inhibitor studies.

• protein kinase activity assays
• kinase inhibitor screening
• signal-transduction research
• substrate-specificity studies

Exact sequence and terminal chemistry define assay behavior. Kinase substrates should be validated under the enzyme, ATP and buffer conditions used in the specific experimental system.
