| MOD_Chk_1 | L.R..[ST]. or L.P..[ST]F | 12711320, 11821419, 15279791 |
Several basophilic kinases are reported to have additional hydrophobic residue preferences, including CHK1,2, MK2, PKD. LxRXX(ST) is one such variant p-site motif. Also the +1 position is often hydrophobic. In the case of CHK2, the R can be replaced by P (as in BRCA-1) but then the other positions must be optimal as in LxPxxSF. Therefore it appears that some flexibility in the 3 specificity residues is possible, where, if one position is poor, the others must be optimal. |
