Biological Information
Background Information:
ARK5 (AMPK related kinase 5) is a serine/threonine kinase and a member of the AMPK family of protein kinases. In response to stimulation by Akt, ARK5 prevents cell death induced by glucose starvation and death receptor activation in tumor cells as a result of inhibition of caspase 8 activation via preservation of c-FLIP. ARK5 can also negatively regulate procaspase-6 via direct phosphorylation at Ser257, leading to resistance to the FasL/Fas signaling system.

Testing Information
Procedure Summary:
ARK5 (h) is incubated with 8 mM MOPS pH 7.0, 0.2 mM EDTA, 300 µM KKKVSRSGLYRSPSMPENLNRPR, 10 mM MgAcetate and [gamma-33P]-ATP (specific activity and concentration as required). The reaction is initiated by the addition of the Mg/ATP mix. After incubation for 40 minutes at room temperature, the reaction is stopped by the addition of phosphoric acid to a concentration of 0.5%. An aliquot of the reaction is then spotted onto a filter and washed four times for 4 minutes in 0.425% phosphoric acid and once in methanol prior to drying and scintillation counting.
Substrate:
300 µM KKKVSRSGLYRSPSMPENLNRPR
Tracer:
33P
ATP Concentration:
[ATP]= 10µM (Km= 34.32µM )
Incubation:
40 min at Room temperature
Control Inhibitor:
Staurosporine
Test Sample Requirements:
Please provide compounds dissolved in 100% DMSO (PBS or HBSS prohibited).
Stock solution should be ≥50× the final assay concentration (a 10 mM stock is also acceptable).
Required volume:
– <60 kinase assays: 120 µL of 50× stock
– ≥60 assays: 420 µL of 50× stock
If you supply 10 mM stocks or powder (pre-weighed), we will apply the appropriate conversion.
For batches of ~50 compounds supplied as solids, the TAT will be extended.
