Abstract:
The present invention provides protein kinase and protein phosphatase substrates, methods of detecting protein kinases and protein phosphatases, and kits for detection of protein kinases and protein phosphatases. The substrates, methods, and kits use multiple substrates that can easily be differentiated from all other substrates, thus enabling rapid and easy detection of protein kinase or protein phosphatase activities. The invention also provides methods of directionally cloning nucleic acids.
