Application notes

WB: Use at a concentration of 1 - 2 µg/ml. Dilute in 5% nonfat dry milk in PBS, 0.05% Tween 20. Incubate for 2 hours at room temperature. Proteins were visualized using a goat anti rabbit secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection system. Predicted molecular weight: 63 kDa.

Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

Responsible for the regulation of fatty acid synthesis by phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase. It also regulates cholesterol synthesis via phosphorylation and inactivation of hormone-sensitive lipase and hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase. Appears to act as a metabolic stress-sensing protein kinase switching off biosynthetic pathways when cellular ATP levels are depleted and when 5'-AMP rises in response to fuel limitation and/or hypoxia. This is a catalytic subunit.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. SNF1 subfamily.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
