Peptides are then subjected to immunoaffinity purification using a PTMScan Â® Motif antibody conjugated to protein A agarose beads. Unbound peptides are removed through washing, and the captured PTM-containing peptides are eluted with dilute acid. Reversed-phase purification is performed on microtips to desalt and separate peptides from antibody prior to concentrating the enriched peptides for LC-MS\/MS analysis. CST recommends the use of PTMScan Â® IAP Buffer #9993 included in the kit.\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nAntibody beads supplied in IAP buffer containing 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C.

The kinase is activated by an elevated AMP\/ATP ratio due to cellular and environmental stress, such as heat shock, hypoxia, and ischemia (2). Several mutations in AMPKÎ³ subunits have been identified, most of which are located in the putative AMP\/ATP binding sites (CBS or Bateman domains). Mutations at these sites lead to reduction of AMPK activity and cause glycogen accumulation in heart or skeletal muscle (2,3). Accumulating evidence indicates that AMPK not only regulates the metabolism of fatty acids and glycogen, but also modulates protein synthesis and cell growth through EF2 and TSC2\/mTOR pathways, as well as blood flow via eNOS\/nNOS (2).AMPK Substrate Motif (LXRXXS\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAMPK; AMPK a; AMPK alpha; AMPKa; AMPKalpha; motif; pampk","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800795697321,"sku":"5564S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-5564s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
