MBP, MAPK Substrate [APRTPGGRR] – 5 mg

Overview

If you’re conducting research on MAP kinases, the MBP, MAPK Substrate [APRTPGGRR] is an essential tool. This peptide is specifically designed for studying the phosphorylation activities of p44MAPK (ERK1) and p42MAPK (ERK2), making it invaluable for your experiments in signaling pathways. The sequence APRTPGGRR is derived from bovine myelin basic protein amino acids 95-98 (PRTP), and while part of this sequence is native, the rest has been synthetically constructed to ensure enhanced performance.

Key Features

• Specific to MAP kinases: p44MAPK (ERK1) and p42MAPK (ERK2)
• Contains the consensus sequence Pro-X-(Ser/Thr)-Pro
• Ideal substrate for phosphorylation reactions
• Available in a convenient 5 mg size
• Ensures high efficiency in your experiments
