Regulating Metabolism: AMPK [ 2015 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Bruce Kemp (Principal investigator)

Brief description The key goal of my research is to understand the role of protein phosphorylation in controlling metabolism, with a special emphasis on the structure and function of members of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway. This is important because the function and survival of all organisms is dependent on the dynamic control of energy metabolism, with energy demand matched to energy supply.
