Biological Information

Background Information:

Calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is a serine/threonine kinase which is encoded as over two dozen variants generated by alternative mRNA splicing of 4 genes. CaMKII phosphorylate target proteins in a calcium calmodulin dependent manner and play critical for gene transcription, ion channel activity, cytoskeletal function and carbohydrate metabolism. CaMKII has been implicated in memory and cell growth control as well as in the disorders of cancer, cystic fibrosis, Alzheimerís disease and epilepsy. The overexpression of a specific constitutively active CAMK2D (CaMKIId) in PC-12, P19 and NIH/3T3 cells induces neurite outgrowth.

Testing Information

Procedure Summary:

Human recombinant protein kinase CAMK2D expressed in insect cells is used. Test compound and/or vehicle is preincubated with 0.2 µg/ml enzyme‡ in modified MOPS buffer pH 7.2 for 15 minutes at 37°C. The reaction is initiated by addition of 50 µM autocamtide-2, 10 µM ATP and 0.25 µCi [γ32P]ATP for another 30 minute incubation period and terminated by further addition of 3% H3PO4. An aliquot is removed and counted to determine the amount of [32P]Autocamtide-2 formed. Compounds are screened at 10 µM.
