AMPKβ2 rabbit pAb - 50 μL

Function: AMPK is responsible for the regulation of fatty acid synthesis by phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Also regulates cholesterol synthesis via phosphorylation and inactivation of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase and hormone-sensitive lipase. This is a regulatory subunit, may be a positive regulator of AMPK activity. It may also serve as an adapter molecule for the catalytic alpha-subunit. PTM: Phosphorylated when associated with the catalytic subunit. similarity: Belongs to the 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase beta subunit family. subunit: Heterotrimer of an alpha catalytic subunit, a beta and a gamma non-catalytic regulatory subunits.
