GlycoErase™ PRKAB2 Knockout HepG2 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0825-JF705)

Description	GlycoErase™ PRKAB2 knockout HepG2 cell line is a human HepG2 model lacking PRKAB2, the β regulatory subunit of AMPK, highly expressed in skeletal muscle. This subunit modulates AMPK activation during metabolic stress and enhances fatty acid and cholesterol biosynthesis regulation. The knockout supports studies of tissue-specific AMPK functions, metabolic stress adaptation, and energy-sensing pathways in liver cells.
