Catalytic subunit of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), an energy sensor protein kinase that plays a key role in regulating cellular energy metabolism. In response to reduction of intracellular ATP levels, AMPK activates energy-producing pathways and inhibits energy-consuming processes. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-559 from mouse 5-AMP-activated protein kinase catalytic subunit alpha-1, fused to GST-Tag at N-terminal and 6X His-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in Baculovirus.
