Abstract excerpt
Glucokinase regulatory protein (GCKR) which binds to glucokinase (GCK) in the nucleus and inhibits its activity in the presence of fructose-6-phosphate is critical for glucose metabolism. In the past few years, a number of case-control studies have been carried out to investigate the relationship between the GCKR polymorphism and type 2 diabetes (T2D) since it was first identified to be associated with fasting...
