Abstract | The adenosine monophosphate ( AMP )–activated protein kinase ( AMPK ) regulates whole-body and cellular energy balance in response to energy demand and supply. AMPK is an αβγ heterotrimer activated by decreasing concentrations of adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) and increasing AMP concentrations. AMPK activation depends on phosphorylation of the α catalytic subunit on threonine-172 ( Thr172 ) by kinases LKB1 or CaMKKβ, and this is promoted by AMP binding to the γ subunit. AMP sustains activity by inhibiting dephosphorylation of α-Thr172, whereas ATP promotes dephosphorylation. Adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ), like AMP, bound to γ sites 1 and 3 and stimulated α-Thr172 phosphorylation. However, in contrast to AMP, ADP did not directly activate phosphorylated AMPK. In this way, both ADP/ATP and AMP/ATP ratios contribute to AMPK regulation. |
