Septin 8 is an interaction partner and in vitro substrate of MK5

Figure 6 Mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 5 phosphoacceptor sites in human SEPT8 are conserved in SEPT8 from other species. Alignment of proven and putative SEPT8 proteins in different species of the region encompassing mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 5 phosphoacceptor sites Ser-242 and Ser-271 (numbering for human SEPT8). The code in parenthesis refers to the accession number in the Protein database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/). Asterisk indicates identical amino acid residues. The non-conserved residues are shown in red. The one-letter amino acid code is used. The residues corresponding to human SEPT8 Ser-242 and Ser-271 are shown.
