Synthetic peptides including acidic clusters as substrates of yeast casein kinase-2

Int J Pept Protein Res. 1990 Oct;36(4):374-80. doi: 10.1111/j.1399-3011.1990.tb01296.x.

Abstract

The synthesis is reported of a series of glutamyl peptide analogs of the model substrate H-Ser-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu-OH of casein kinase-2 (CK-2). A convenient HPLC method for the separation of slightly different acidic peptides is also reported. The site specificity of yeast casein kinase-2 (Y-CK2) is examined with the aid of synthesized peptide substrates.
