Abstract excerpt
Glycogen synthase, a key enzyme in the regulation of glycogen synthesis by insulin, is controlled by multisite phosphorylation. Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) phosphorylates four serine residues in the COOH terminus of glycogen synthase. Phosphorylation of one of these residues, Ser(640) (site 3a), causes strong inactivation of glycogen synthase. In previous work, we demonstrated in cell models that site 3a...
