AMPK is a heterotrimer: <br /> <scene name='49/493732/Cv/4'>AMPK α subunit</scene> is the catalytic subunit and contains <scene name='49/493732/Cv/3'>Thr174 (TPO) which undergoes phosphorylation</scene>. <br /> <scene name='49/493732/Cv/5'>AMPK β subunit</scene> is a scaffold on which the heterotrimer assembles. β subunit contains Ser108 (SEP) <br /> '''AMPK γ subunit''' detects shifts in AMP:ATP ratio via its 4 cystathionine β synthase (CBS) domains. The active site binds AMP.
