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).
Description: Recombinant human AMPK (combination of A2/B2/G1 subunits), full length, with C-terminal His-tags, expressed in Sf9 insect cells via a baculovirus expression system. MW = 69 kDa (A2), 36 kDa (B2), 41 kDa (G1).
