What CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] is studied for

  • HAT / HDAC / HMT / KDM activity assays
  • Bromodomain and chromodomain binding studies
  • Epigenetic inhibitor screening
  • Chromatin-mark specificity profiling

Mechanism of action

CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] sits within the Histone / Epigenetic research class (CPC reference HIST-081). These peptides carry defined post-translational modifications (methylation, acetylation, phosphorylation) at N-terminal histone tail residues, allowing biochemical characterization of writers (HMTs, HATs), erasers (KDMs, HDACs), and readers (bromodomains, chromodomains). Investigators typically incorporate CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] as a reference standard, tool ligand, or substrate in the assay contexts listed above. SPR / BLI binding, AlphaScreen, TR-FRET, and MS-based activity assays.

Frequently asked questions

What is CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL]?

CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] (CPC catalog code HIST-081) is a synthetic histone / epigenetic reader-writer substrate in the histone / epigenetic category. It is provided as a lyophilized ~1 mg vial for in-vitro research use only.

What is CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] studied for?

Published and internal research programs use CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] as a reference standard in histone / epigenetic workflows — for example, hat / hdac / hmt / kdm activity assays and bromodomain and chromodomain binding studies. Human clinical evidence is not established.

Is CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] FDA-approved for human use?

No. CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] is a research-grade reference peptide and is not approved by the FDA or any national regulator for human or veterinary therapeutic use. It is offered exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and does not ship to the United States for consumer use.

How is CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] typically used in the lab?

In a histone / epigenetic workflow, CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] is reconstituted in sterile buffer or DMSO (solubility-dependent) and applied in the researcher's chosen assay format. SPR / BLI binding, AlphaScreen, TR-FRET, and MS-based activity assays.

How should CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] be stored?

Store lyophilized at −20 °C. Reconstitute in low-salt buffer; avoid repeated freeze–thaw. Follow your institution's standard operating procedures for handling synthetic peptides.

Where does the CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL] product page point to?

This kindr reference page mirrors CPC Scientific's catalog metadata for HIST-081. The upstream reference sheet — including sequence, purity, MW, and application notes where published — is linked from the buy panel. All orders placed on kindr Peptides ship internationally under research-use terms only.

What quality specifications apply to CDK5 Substrate [PKTPKKAKKL]?

Research-grade peptides in the CPC catalog are synthesized by solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), purified by preparative RP-HPLC, and characterized by analytical HPLC and mass spectrometry. Typical purity is ≥95%; certificate of analysis is available on request.
