[edit] Style

The article is written in the format and tone of a formal scientific literature review. In fact I surmise that it was copied & pasted from some grad student's thesis/dissertation. While nice and sophisticated, this is hardly consistent with the Wikipedia style guide. 208.58.197.210 (talk) 11:19, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] a question about resveratrol and AMPK

I have heard some reports suggest that resveratrol is an AMP protein kinase modulator? Some sources suggest that this is an important effect mediating some of resveratrol's protective effects. Does anyone know anything about this? DFW HMS —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.180.129.233 (talk) 17:34, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Confusion with PRKAR2A

I recently made an article on the PRKAR2A gene using content from ProteinBoxBot. I'm trying to add wikilinks and the article makes reference to "cAMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK)." However, I find articles on Wikipedia for both AMPK and cAMP-dependent protein kinase. I know next to nothing about this field of biology and would be very appreciative if someone who knows better and I could sort this all out. Forluvoft (talk) 02:58, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
