In vitro kinase assays were performed by incubating 75 ng CDK1/Cyclin B recombinant human protein (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA) and 100 μg TFCP2L1 wild‐type (WT; IQVHCISTEFTPRKHGGEK) or T177A variant (IQVHCISTEFAPRK HGGEK) peptides (Peptron, Daejeon, Korea) in kinase buffer [60 mM HEPES‐NaOH pH 7.5, 3 mM MgCl2, 3 mM Na‐orthovanadate, 1.2 mM DTT, and 0.5 mM ATP] (Cell Signaling Technology) at 30°C for 15 min. The peptide mixture from the in vitro kinase assay was desalted using C18 reverse phase chromatography using ZipTip (Merck, Germany) and dried. The reconstituted peptide mixture containing 0.1% formic acid was introduced into the Ultimate 3000 RSLCnano system (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and the mass to charge ratio of the ionized peptide was measured using Q Exactive Plus Orbitrap mass spectrometry (Thermo Fisher Scientific). LC, mass spectrometry, and database searches were performed as described previously.
Q exactive plus orbitrap mass spectrometry
The Q Exactive Plus Orbitrap mass spectrometry is a high-resolution, high-mass-accuracy mass spectrometer. It combines a quadrupole mass filter with an Orbitrap mass analyzer to provide accurate mass measurements and high-resolution data acquisition.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
