Pep2-AVKI

Pep2-AVKI is a selective peptide inhibitor of the binding of the AMPA receptor subunit (GluR2) at the C-terminal PDZ site to C-kinase (PICK1) . Pep2-AVKI does not affect the binding of (AMPA-type glutamate receptor) GluA2 to GRIP or ABP. Pep2-AVKI does not increase the amplitude of AMPA currents. pep2-AVKI can be used to study neurological diseases[1][2][3][4].
