Description: Glycogen Synthase (GS) is a key enzyme in the regulation of Glycogen metabolism. GS catalyzes the incorporation of UDP-glucose incorporation into Glycogen. The activity of Glycogen synthase is regulated by hormonal stimuli (insulin, catecholamines and glucagons) and non-hormonal stimuli (blood glucose level and exercise). Two main isoforms of mammalian GS are designated as muscle (Glycogen synthase 1) and liver (Glycogen synthase 2). Most tissues express Glycogen synthase 1, whereas Glycogen synthase 2 appears to be tissue-specific. The two isoforms have 70% identical amino acid sequence. Glycogen synthase can be phosphorylated by multiple kinases including Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), mitogen-activated protein kinase-related protein kinase (DYRK), and SAPK2b/p38b which leads to its inactivation.

Description: Human muscle glycogen synthase (GS) is responsible for the biosynthesis of glycogen from phosphorylated glucose units. Mammalian liver and muscle contain GS consisting of four subunits with a total molecular weight of 360,000. GS is subject to regulation through both allosteric and covalent modification and occurs in two forms: the phosphorylated inactive form, and the dephosphorylated active form. GS is inactivated by the serine/threonine kinase called glycogen synthase kinase-3b that mainly functions to phosphorylate muscle glycogen synthase. This antibody is specific for the phosphorylated form of GS at Ser 640. Phosphorylation of GS at S640 has been associated with Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome.

Description: PDK1 (3 Phosphoinositide Dependent Protein Kinase 1) phosphorylates AGC kinases. PDK1 activates conventional PKC and PKC zeta through phosphorylation of critical threonine residues in the activation loop. PDK1 also phosphorylates Protein Kinase B (PKB) at threonine 308 in the presence of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate. Active Akt inactivates Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 (GSK3), eventually leading to the dephosphorylation and activation of Glycogen synthase and the stimulation of Glycogen synthesis. Because of the role that PDK plays in insulin-induced Glycogen synthesis and PKC activation it is a potentially important target for metabolic drug research. There are three named isoforms.

Supplier: Bioss

Description: GBE1 is a 702 amino acid protein that is expressed at high levels in muscle and liver and is involved in glycogen biosynthesis. Existing as a monomer, GBE1 catalyzes the transfer of alpha-1,4-linked glucosyl units from the outer end of a glycogen chain to an alpha-1,6 position on a neighboring glycogen chain and, via this catalytic activity, plays an essential role in glycogen accumulation. Defects in the gene encoding GBE1 are the cause of glycogen storage disease type 4 (GSD4) and adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD), the first of which is a metabolic disorder that is associated with the accumulation of polysaccharides and is characterized by liver disease during childhood. Unlike GSD4, APBD is a late-onset disorder that affects the central and peripheral nervous systems and is characterized by cognitive impairment, pyramidal tetraparesis and peripheral neuropathy.

Catalog Number: (10391-242)

Supplier: Bioss

Description: This gene encodes a member of the glycogenin family. glycogenin is a glycosyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of a short glucose polymer from uridine diphosphate glucose in an autoglucosylation reaction. This reaction is followed by elongation and branching of the polymer, catalyzed by glycogen synthase and branching enzyme, to form glycogen. This gene is expressed in muscle and other tissues. Mutations in this gene result in glycogen storage disease XV. This gene has pseudogenes on chromosomes 1, 8 and 13 respectively. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010].
