Type II casein kinase (CK-2) is unique among the protein kinases since it can use ATP as well as GTP as a phosphoryl donor. It is extremely sensitive to heparin inhibition and can be activated by polyamines and basic polypeptides. This peptide contains the consensus phosphorylation sequence for CK2 and can be used as the […]

Non-competitive nicotinic cholinergic antagonist that selectively inhibits nicotinic-stimulated catecholamine secretion from chromaffin cells and noradrenergic neurons (IC50 ~ 200 nM). It blocks nicotinic-induced cationic signaling (IC50 ~ 200 – 250 nM) and inhibits nicotinic-agonist induced desensitization of catecholamine release, and also stimulates mast cell release of histamine via a separate mechanism.

An internally quenched fluorogenic substrate (Ab/Em =328/393 nm) for cathepsins D and E and not for B, H or L, obtained from the hepatopancreas (liver) of the Japanese common squid (Todarodes pacificus). The cleavage occurs at the Phe-Phe amide bond resulting in enhanced fluorescence and is used in screening cathepsin D and E inhibitors and […]
