Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II (281 – 289)

Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II (281-289) is a high-purity synthetic peptide representing the autoinhibitory domain fragment of CaMKII. This 9-amino acid peptide (KRQETDDV) corresponds to residues 281-289 of the human CaMKII α isoform and functions as a competitive inhibitor of CaMKII catalytic activity. Manufactured under stringent quality controls with HPLC-verified purity and comprehensive analytical documentation, this product provides researchers with a specialized tool for studying CaMKII regulation, kinase signaling pathways, and neuronal plasticity mechanisms. The peptide mimics the autoinhibitory interaction that occurs in the inactive state of CaMKII, enabling investigations into calcium/calmodulin-dependent activation, enzyme kinetics, and signal transduction processes in various cellular contexts.

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II (281-289) functions as a competitive inhibitor by binding to the catalytic domain of CaMKII, mimicking the autoinhibitory interaction that occurs in the inactive state of the full-length enzyme. In the absence of calcium/calmodulin, this peptide sequence in the intact CaMKII associates with the catalytic site, preventing substrate access and maintaining the kinase in an inactive conformation. The synthetic peptide competes with the endogenous autoinhibitory domain for binding to the catalytic site, thereby inhibiting CaMKII activity. This inhibition is reversible and concentration-dependent, allowing researchers to specifically probe CaMKII function without affecting other kinases. The peptide's mechanism is based on its high-affinity interaction with the catalytic domain, effectively blocking substrate phosphorylation and downstream signaling events.
