[[AMP-activated protein kinase]] | |||
'''AMP-activated protein kinase''' (AMPK) is a [[nuclear receptor]] which regulates cellular uptake of glucose, β-oxidation of fatty acids and biogenesis of glucose transporter thus playing a role in cellular energy homeostasis by phosphorylating key proteins. In response to low levels of ATP, AMPK activates energy-producing pathways and inhibits energy-consuming pathways. | |||
