Abstract excerpt
We previously reported that glucokinase undergoes ubiquitination and subsequent degradation, a process mediated by cereblon, particularly in the presence of uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-glucose). In this context, we hereby present evidence showcasing the resilience of variant glucokinase proteins of maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 2 (MODY2) against degradation and, concomitantly, their influence on...
