Vectors for Human PRKAA2

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol PRKAA2
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2
  • Other Aliases AMPK; AMPK2; AMPKa2; PRKAA
  • Other Desigations 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase catalytic subunit alpha-2; 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase, catalytic alpha-2 chain; ACACA kinase; AMPK alpha 2; AMPK subunit alpha-2; AMPK-alpha-2 chain; HMGCR kinase; acetyl-CoA carboxylase kinase; hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase kinase; protein kinase, AMP-activated, alpha 2 catalytic subunit
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene is a catalytic subunit of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK is a heterotrimer consisting of an alpha catalytic subunit, and non-catalytic beta and gamma subunits. AMPK is an important energy-sensing enzyme that monitors cellular energy status. In response to cellular metabolic stresses, AMPK is activated, and thus phosphorylates and inactivates acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and beta-hydroxy beta-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGCR), key enzymes involved in regulating de novo biosynthesis of fatty acid and cholesterol. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggest that this catalytic subunit may control whole-body insulin sensitivity and is necessary for maintaining myocardial energy homeostasis during ischemia.
