Abstract
Out of the 90 human protein tyrosine kinases, 81 were assayed with short peptides derived from well-characterized [CDK1(Tyr15), IRS1(Tyr983), and JAK1(Tyr1023)] or generic [polyGlu:Tyr(4:1) and poly-Glu:Ala:Tyr(1:1:1)] substrates. As expected, the CDK1 peptide is a substrate for all Src family kinases. On the other hand, some of the activities are novel and lead to a better understanding of the function of certain kinases. Specifically, the CDK1 peptide is a substrate for many of the Eph family members. Interestingly, profiling of nearly all the human protein tyrosine kinases revealed a distinct pattern of selectivity towards the CDK1 and IRS1 peptides.
Keywords: Peptide substrates, protein-tyrosine kinases.
