Abstract excerpt
The SNF1/AMP-activated protein kinases are αβγ-heterotrimers that sense and regulate energy status in eukaryotes. They are activated by phosphorylation of the catalytic Snf1/α subunit, and the Snf4/γ regulatory subunit regulates phosphorylation through adenine nucleotide binding. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Snf1 subunit is phosphorylated on the activation-loop Thr-210 in response to glucose limitation. To...
