The axis-inducing activity, stability and subcellular distribution of beta-catenin is regulated in Xenopus embryos by glycogen synthase kinase 3 [PDF]
The serine/threonine kinase Xgsk-3 and the intracellular protein beta-catenin are necessary for the establishment of the dorsal-ventral axis in Xenopus.

In vivo regulation of muscle glycogen synthase and the control of glycogen synthesis. [PDF]
The activity of glycogen synthase (GSase; EC 2.4.1.11) is regulated by covalent phosphorylation. Because of this regulation, GSase has generally been considered to control the rate of glycogen synthesis. This hypothesis is examined in light of recent in vivo NMR experiments on rat and human muscle and is found to be quantitatively inconsistent with the

Gsk-3$ \beta $ aggravates depression symptoms in a chronic stress mouse model [PDF]
Depression caused by genetic and environmental factors is acomplicated disease. Here, it is demonstrated that glycogen synthase kinase-3$\beta$ is highly expressed and phosphorylated in the brain of a chronic stress mouse. Inhibition of glycogen synthase

Isozymes of glycogen synthase [PDF]
Antisera to rat skeletal muscle glycogen synthase failed to recognize liver glycogen synthase by electroblot analysis. The antisera recognized the enzyme in skeletal muscle, heart, fat, kidney, and brain. The results support the hypothesis that there are at least two isozymes of glycogen synthase, and that most tissues contain a form similar or ...

ATP Synthase: A Moonlighting Enzyme with Unprecedented Functions [PDF]
ATP synthase's intrinsic molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) adds constructively to, and hence reinforces, the chemiosmotic voltage. This ATP synthase voltage represents a new free energy term that appears to have been overlooked. This term is at least roughly equal in order of magnitude and opposite in sign to the energy needed to be dissipated ...

Liver Glycogen Synthase in Rats with a Glycogen‐Storage Disorder [PDF]
1. A strain of rats with a genetically‐determined liver glycogen‐storage disorder (gsd/gsd) caused by a deficiency of liver phosphorylase kinase has a very high concentration of glycogen in the liver with a total glycogen synthase activity higher than in liver of fed normal animals, but only a small amount of the enzyme in the active form.

Glycogen Synthase Kinase‐3 [PDF]
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) is a ubiquitous and promiscuous kinase that has been studied extensively for over four decades. Initial reports beginning in the 1970s described its role in cellular metabolic pathways fundamental to glucose metabolism, but in more recent years the number of reports describing aberrant GSK3 activity in pathological ...

Regulatory Functions of Nilaparvata lugens GSK-3 in Energy and Chitin Metabolism
Glucose metabolism is a biologically important metabolic process. Glycogen synthase kinase (GSK-3) is a key enzyme located in the middle of the sugar metabolism pathway that can regulate the energy metabolism process in the body through insulin signaling.
