Description
AMPK (A2/ B1/G1), His-tag | 40704 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Category: Kinase-Serine/Threonine/Protein
Application: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling
Background: AMPK (A2/B1/G1) plays a key role in insulin signaling pathway and is a major therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetes (1). AMPK is viewed as a fuel sensor for glucose and lipid metabolism by modulating the activity of the autonomous nervous system in vivo. Short-term overexpression of a constitutively active form of AMPK in the liver leads to mild hypoglycemia and fatty liver due to increased fatty acid utilization (2).
Description: Recombinant human AMPK (combination of A2/B1/G1 subunits), full length, with C-terminal His-tag, expressed in Sf9 insect cells via a baculovirus expression system.
