Multisite phosphorylation of a synthetic peptide derived from the carboxyl terminus of the ribosomal protein S6

Description: Article synthesizing and testing the synthetic peptide AKRRRLSSLRASTSKSESSQK (56-21) which corresponds to the carboxyl-terminal 21 amino acids of human ribosomal protein S6 as a substrate for S6/H4 kinase purified from human placenta. The data suggests that multiple S6 kinases may be required to phosphorylate S6 at all five sites which are modified in vivo.

Quantitative Studies of Inhibitors of ADP-ribosylation in Vitro and in Vivo

Description: Article evaluating the selectivity of compounds originally identified as inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase on members of the three classes of enzymes. The results suggest that micromolar levels of the benzamides in the culture medium should allow selective inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) metabolism in intact cells. Furthermore, comparative quantitative inhibition studies should prove useful for assigning the biological effects of these inhibitors as an effect on either poly(ADP-ribose) o… more
