AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) serves as a central guardian maintaining energy homeostasis under nutrient stress and/or energy crisis. The study by Xu et al. identified that a nuclear factor UHRF1 (ubiquitin-like with plant homeodomain and RING finger domains 1) suppresses AMPK activity in the nucleus by recruiting PP2A to dephosphorylate AMPK at T172, which in turn governs cytoplasmic AMPK activity in regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism.Eukaryotic cells operate the intrinsic mechanism to sense the imbalance of energy through activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which serves as a guardian to regulate diverse signal and metabolic pathways in response to various environmental insults. AMPK serves as an energy sensor to maintain energy homeostasis and cell survival by phosphorylating several key metabolic proteins involved in reprograming the cellular metabolism. 1 AMPK activation in response to distinct stresses triggers catabolic metabolism, but turns off anabolic metabolism. 1 To comprehensively understand the mechanism of how AMPK activation is modulated upon energy stress is pivotal for offering the insight and strategy into the treatment for metabolic diseases and cancer. 1
