Introduction | PRKAB2 is a regulatory subunit of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK is a heterotrimer contains an alpha catalytic subunit and non-catalytic beta and gamma subunits. AMPK is a significant energy-sensing enzyme that supervises cellular energy status. AMPK is activated as a reply to cellular metabolic stresses, therefore phosphorylates and inactivates acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and beta-hydroxy beta-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGCR), vital enzymes involved in regulating de novo biosynthesis of fatty acid and cholesterol. PRKAB2 is a positive regulator of AMPK activity and highly expressed in skeletal muscle. |
Synonyms | 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase subunit beta-2, AMPK subunit beta-2. |
Source | E.coli. |
Physical Appearance | Sterile Filtered colorless solution. |
Formulation | The PRKAB2 solution (1mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer, (pH8.0), 10% glycerol and 2M Urea. |
