AMPK (A2/B2/G1), His-tag Recombinant

Products from BPS Bioscience require a minimum order value above 400€

Encompassing Amino Acids: full length

Applications: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling. 

Background: AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) exhibits a key role as a master regulator of cellular energy homeostasis (1). AMPK exists as a heterotrimeric complex composed of a catalytic α subunit and regulatory β and γ subunits. Binding of AMP to the γ subunit allosterically activates the complex. AMPK is activated in response to stresses that deplete cellular ATP (low glucose, hypoxia and ischemia) and via signaling pathways in response to adiponectin, leptin and CAMKKβ (2).
