A 769662      AMP-activated protein kinase activator

Product Code: Asc-335

Purity: >99%

  
         
Biological Description

Potent, reversible activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) (EC50 = 0.8 μM). Directly activates native rat AMPK by mimicking the effects of AMP - it activates AMPK both allosterically and by inhibiting dephosphorylation of AMPK. Shown to inhibi
