AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylates cardiac troponin I and alters contractility of murine ventricular myocytes.

RATIONALE: AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important regulator of energy balance and signaling in the heart. Mutations affecting the regulatory γ2 subunit have been shown to cause an essentially cardiac-restricted phenotype of hypertrophy and conduction disease, suggesting a specific role...
