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.
Assay Conditions: Assay was done in Kinase buffer containing 1 mM DTT using AMARApeptide as a substrate (0.1 mg/ml), 20 mM ATP and 100 µM AMP . Reaction was done at 30°C for 45 min. Amount of ATP transferred was calculated using Kinase-Glo reagent (Promega)
Background: AMPK is a heterotrimer protein kinase consisting of an α catalytic subunit, and non-catalytic β and γ subunits. AMPK is an important energy-sensing enzyme that monitors cellular energy status (1). In response to cellular metabolic stresses, AMPK is activated and phosphorylates and inactivates acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and beta-hydroxy beta-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGCR), key enzymes involved in regulating biosynthesis of fatty acid and cholesterol (2).
Description: Recombinant full-lengthhuman AMPK (combination of A1/B1/G1subunits) was expressed by baculovirus inSf9 insect cells using a C-terminal His tag.The gene accession number for the threesubunits (A1/B1/G1) is NM_006251,NM_006253, and NM_002733,respectively. This protein has beenactivated with CAMKK.
