Resource summary

AMPK
  1. During exercise AMP increases causing the activation of a signalling molecule AMPK
    1. Activation tilts the balance towards energy production
      1. = enhanced uptake of glucose due to mobilisation of GLUT4
        1. = Greater uptake of long chain FA across the mitochondria
          1. Mobilises the plasma membrane FA transporter CD36
        2. AMP Activated protein kinase
          1. Controls the overall balance between energy production and energy utilization
            1. See Jensen et al 2009
