PEP-198 is a 18 amino acid synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 376-396 from human kinesin 5B. The sequence of this peptide is (amino to carboxy terminus): C I D E Q F D K E K A N L E A F T V D K D I.
This peptide may be used for neutralization and control experiments with the polyclonal antibody that reacts with this product, catalog # PA1-643. Using a solution of peptide of equal volume and concentration to the corresponding antibody will yield a large molar excess of peptide (~70-fold) for competitive inhibition of antibody-protein binding reactions.
Reconstitute with 0.1 mL of distilled water.
Microtubule-dependent motor required for normal distribution of mitochondria and lysosomes. Can induce formation of neurite-like membrane protrusions in non-neuronal cells in a ZFYVE27-dependent manner. Regulates centrosome and nuclear positioning during mitotic entry. During the G2 phase of the cell cycle in a BICD2-dependent manner, antagonizes dynein function and drives the separation of nuclei and centrosomes. Required for anterograde axonal transportation of MAPK8IP3/JIP3 which is essential for MAPK8IP3/JIP3 function in axon elongation.
