  1. All peptides were either purchased from Vivitide (formerly New England Peptides (NEP); greater than 95% purity) or synthesized in-house at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPI) and solubilized in water. All single lysine peptide substrates had their N termini acetylated (Ac). Phosphodegrons are shown as pT (phospho Thr) or pS (phospho Ser), and the hydroxylated Pro degron in Hif1α peptides are shown as hyP. The Sil1 peptide substrate amino acid sequence was based on the clone 13 design17 that had optimized affinity for FEM1C. All peptides that were substrates for ubiquitylation assays contained the ‘RRASY’ amino acidic sequence that enabled 32P-labeling by protein kinase A (New England Biolabs).
