- * cAMP- and cGMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation site *
- ****************************************************************
-
- There has been a number of studies relative to the specificity of cAMP- and
- cGMP-dependent protein kinases [1,2,3]. Both types of kinases appear to share
- a preference for the phosphorylation of serine or threonine residues found
- close to at least two consecutive N-terminal basic residues. It is important
- to note that there are quite a number of exceptions to this rule.
-
- -Consensus pattern: [RK](2)-x-[ST]
- [S or T is the phosphorylation site]
