Recombinant Human PRKAA1, GST-His

• Cat.No.: PRKAA1-740H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human AMPK-alpha1 Amino acids M1-Q550, N-terminally fused to GST-HIS6-Thrombin cleavage site, was expressed inSf9cells. MW = 92,188 Da.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Sf9 Cells
• Tag: GST
• Protein Length: 1-550 a.a.
• Description: AMPK is a cellular energy sensor conserved in all eukaryotic cells. The kinase activity of AMPK is activated by the stimuli that increase the cellular AMP/ATP ratio. AMPK regulates the activities of a number of key metabolic enzymes through phosphorylation. It protects cells from stresses that cause ATP depletion by switching off ATP-consuming biosynthetic pathways. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed.
• Purification: One-step affinity purification using GSH-agarose.
• Product Identity: AMPK-alpha1 was confirmed as human AMPK-alpha1 by mass spectroscopy LC-ESI-MS/MS.
• Storage Buffer: 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0; 100 mM NaCl, 5 mM DTT, 4 mM reduced glutathione, 20% glycerol.
• Concentration: 0.144 μg/μl (Bradford method using BSA [Sigma, cat# A-7638,Lot 79H7641] as standard protein).
• Specific Activity: 37 pmol/μg×min.
• Storage: -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles!
