| Targets |
This peptide targets cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) as a selective substrate. PKG is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a key role in the nitric oxide/cGMP signaling pathway, regulating vascular smooth muscle relaxation, platelet function, and neuronal signaling. The peptide is phosphorylated by PKG at the serine residue within the recognition sequence.

| ln Vitro |
The incorporation of [33P]ATP into the synthetic peptide PKG substrate RKRSRAE is measured. PKG Iα gatekeeper mutants' kinase activity is inhibited by N6-benzyl-ATP, but WT is not affected. After being released from neuronal exocytosis, serotonin is reabsorbed by the serotonin transporter (SERT). Several mechanisms, including as the cyclic GMP signaling cascade involving PKG, guanylyl cyclase, and nitric oxide synthase, control SERT [1].
In vitro, this peptide serves as a selective substrate for PKG. It is phosphorylated by PKG in the presence of ATP and cGMP. The peptide is used to measure PKG activity in kinase assays and to study the regulation of the cGMP signaling pathway. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, this peptide is used as a tool to study PKG activity and cGMP signaling in tissues. It may be introduced into cells or tissues to assess PKG function or to compete with endogenous substrates. However, the primary use of this peptide is in in vitro biochemical assays.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Kinase assays for this peptide typically involve incubating the peptide with purified PKG, ATP, and cGMP. Phosphorylation of the peptide is detected using radiolabeled ATP (32P or 33P) or by using phospho-specific antibodies. The extent of phosphorylation is quantified by scintillation counting or ELISA.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for this peptide may involve introducing the peptide into cells using cell-permeable delivery methods or using lysates from cells treated with cGMP-elevating agents. PKG activity is measured by assessing phosphorylation of the peptide substrate.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies with this peptide are limited, as it is primarily used as an in vitro substrate. When used in vivo, it is typically delivered via microinjection or using cell-penetrating peptide technology. Tissues are harvested and PKG activity is assessed ex vivo.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As a peptide, this compound is expected to have a short half-life due to proteolytic degradation. The peptide should be stored as a lyophilized powder at -20degC. Standard peptide handling and storage procedures apply.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for this peptide are limited. Peptide research compounds are generally well-tolerated at the concentrations used in biochemical assays. Standard safety precautions for laboratory handling should be followed.
