Source / Purification

The GST-Kinase fusion protein was produced using a baculovirus expression system with a construct expressing full length human Src (Met1-Leu536) with an amino-terminal GST tag. The protein was purified by one-step affinity chromatography using glutathione-agarose.

Quality Control

The substrate peptide was selected using our Tyrosine Kinase Substrate Screening Kit #7450. Phospho-Tyrosine Mouse mAb (P-Tyr-100) #9411 was used for detection. The quality of the biotinylated peptide was evaluated by reverse-phase HPLC and by mass spectrometry.Purified Src kinase was quality controlled for purity by SDS-PAGE followed by Coomassie stain and Western blot. The specific activity of the Src kinase was determined using a radiometric assay [Fig.1]. Time course [Fig.2], kinase dose dependency [Fig.3] and substrate dose-dependency [Fig.4] assays were performed to verify Src activity using the Src substrate peptide provided in this kit. Src sensitivity to the inhibitor staurosporine was measured using the Src substrate peptide provided in this kit [Fig.5].

Background

The Src family of protein tyrosine kinases (including Src, Lyn, Fyn, Yes, Lck, Blk and Hck) are important in the regulation of growth and differentiation of eukaryotic cells (1). Src activity is regulated by tyrosine phosphorylation at two sites, but with opposing effects. Phosphorylation of Tyr416 in the activation loop of the kinase domain by Csk upregulates enzyme activity, whereas phosphorylation of Tyr527 in the carboxy-terminal tail renders the enzyme less active (2).
