Residues 1 to 314 of AMPKα1 were amplified from the construct pWZL-Neo-Myr-Flag-PRKAA1 (Addgene, Cambridge, MA) (33) and then cloned to pCMR2 lentiviral vector to express the constitutively activated AMPKα1 (AMPK-CA). Recombinant lentiviruses of the empty vector (pWZL-Neo-Myr-Flag-DEST) or AMPK-CA were obtained as described above.
