In response to reduction of intracellular ATP levels, AMPK activates energy-producing pathways and inhibits energy-consuming processes: inhibits protein, carbohydrate and lipid biosynthesis, as well as cell growth Page 1/2 10320 Camino Santa Fe, Suite G San Diego, CA 92121 Tel: 858.875.1900 Fax: 858.622.0609 and proliferation. AMPK acts via direct phosphorylation of metabolic enzymes, and by longer-term effects via phosphorylation of transcription regulators. Also acts as a regulator of cellular polarity by remodeling the actin cytoskeleton; probably by indirectly activating myosin. Gamma non-catalytic subunit mediates binding to AMP, ADP and ATP, leading to activate or inhibit AMPK: AMP-binding results in allosteric activation of alpha catalytic subunit (PRKAA1 or PRKAA2) both by inducing phosphorylation and preventing dephosphorylation of catalytic subunits. ADP also stimulates phosphorylation, without stimulating already phosphorylated catalytic subunit. ATP promotes dephosphorylation of catalytic subunit, rendering the AMPK enzyme inactive.

    9853 Pacific Heights Blvd. Suite D. San Diego, CA 92121, USA Tel: 858-263-4982 Email: [email protected] 32-3099: PRKAB1 Recombinant Protein Alternative Name : AMPK,HAMPKb,5'-AMP-activated protein kinase subunit beta-1,AMPK subunit beta-1,AMPKb,PRKAB1. Description Source : E.coli. PRKAB1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 293 amino acids (1-270 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 32.8 kDa. The PRKAB1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His Tag at N- Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase subunit beta-1 (PRKAB1) hinders protein, carbohydrate and lipid biosynthesis, in addition to cell growth and proliferation. AMPK is a heterotrimer comprised of an alpha catalytic subunit, and non-catalytic beta and gamma subunits. AMPK acts via direct phosphorylation of metabolic enzymes, and longer-term effects by phosphorylation of transcription regulators. PRKAB1 is a regulator of cellular polarity by remodeling the actin cytoskeleton; most likely by indirectly activating myosin. Beta non-catalytic subunit acts as a scaffold on which the AMPK complex compiles, through its C-terminus that joins alpha (PRKAA1 or PRKAA2) and gamma subunits (PRKAG1, PRKAG2 or PRKAG3). Product Info Amount : 5 µg Purification : Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE. The PRKAB1 protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.15M NaCl, Content : 10% glycerol and 1mM DTT. Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of Storage condition : time.

  • AMPK Causes Cell Cycle Arrest in LKB1-Deficient Cells Via Activation of CAMKK2

These mechanistic findings ratios, signifying energy deficit, promote allosteric activation and confirm that AMPK activation triggers cell-cycle arrest, and also net Thr172 phosphorylation mediated by LKB1, so that the LKB1– suggest that the rapid proliferation of LKB1-null tumor cells is due AMPK pathway acts as an energy sensor. Many tumor cells carry to lack of the restraining influence of AMPK. However, cell-cycle loss-of-function mutations in the STK11 gene encoding LKB1, but arrest can be restored by reexpressing LKB1 or a constitutively LKB1 reexpression in these cells causes cell-cycle arrest.

  • Association of AMP-Activated Protein Kinase with Risk and Progression of Non–Hodgkin Lymphoma
    Published OnlineFirst February 8, 2013; DOI: 10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-12-1014 Cancer Epidemiology, Research Article Biomarkers & Prevention Association of AMP-Activated Protein Kinase with Risk and Progression of Non–Hodgkin Lymphoma Aaron E. Hoffman1, Kathryn Demanelis1, Alan Fu2, Tongzhang Zheng2, and Yong Zhu2 Abstract Background: Metabolic dysregulation has been identified as an "emerging hallmark" of cancer. The heterotrimeric AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) complex is a central regulator of the metabolic system and an important component of the mTOR pathway and the p53 axis, making it uniquely positioned to influence carcinogenesis through its canonical functions in the metabolic arena, as well as through more traditional mechanisms such as regulation of apoptosis and angiogenesis. Methods: We conducted a population-based genetic association study to examine the impact of mutations in AMPK subunit genes on risk of non–Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). We also analyzed public microarray data to determine the expression of AMPK in NHL cells and to assess the influence of AMPK expression on overall survival in patients with NHL. Results: We identified an AMPK subunit haplotype, which was significantly associated with NHL [OR, 5.44, 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.15–13.75] in women with no family history of cancer. Haplotypes in two subunits, PRKAA2 and PRKAG3, were nominally associated with the follicular and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma histologic subtypes, respectively, although these associations did not retain statistical significance after correction for multiple comparisons. Further, both of these subunits were differentially expressed (P < 0.05) in one or more lymphoma cell type, and higher expression of two versions of the AMPK-b subunit was significantly associated with increased 5-year survival among patients with NHL (P ¼ 0.001 and P ¼ 0.021).
