Regulation of glycogen synthesis in cardiac tissue: possible involvement of sulfhydryl modification [PDF]
Dephosphorylation of a purified bovine cardiac phosphorylated glycogen synthase can be inhibited by glycogen. Aging glycogen-free glycogen synthase in the absence of reducing agent or incubating it with oxidized glutathione (GSSG) at -20(DEGREES)C causes

Crystal Structure of an Archaeal Glycogen Synthase [PDF]
Glycogen and starch synthases are retaining glycosyltransferases that catalyze the transfer of glucosyl residues to the non-reducing end of a growing alpha-1,4-glucan chain, a central process of the carbon/energy metabolism present in almost all living organisms.

Isoflurane and sevoflurane are both inhalation anesthetics, but in clinical application, sevoflurane has been considered to be less suitable for long-term anesthesia because of its catabolic compounds and potential nephrotoxicity.

Glycogen and its metabolism: some new developments and old themes [PDF]
Glycogen is a branched polymer of glucose that acts as a store of energy in times of nutritional sufficiency for utilization in times of need. Its metabolism has been the subject of extensive investigation and much is known about its regulation by ...

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury can lead to severe brain injury. Glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta is known to be involved in myo-cardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and diabetes mellitus. However, the precise role of glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta

Glycogen, a stored form of glucose, is an important form of energy for aquatic shellfish, contributing to the flavor and quality of the oyster. The glycogen synthase (GYS) and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) are two major enzymes in the glycogenesis.

Expression and purification of functional human glycogen synthase-1:glycogenin-1 complex in insect cells [PDF]
We report the successful expression and purification of functional human muscle glycogen synthase (GYS1) in complex with human glycogenin-1 (GN1). Stoichiometric GYS1:GN1 complex was produced by co-expression of GYS1 and GN1 using a bicistronic pFastBac™-

Nuclear glycogen synthase — fact or artifact? [PDF]
According to Oron [FEBS Lett. (1980) 118, 255–258], nuclear glycogen synthase represents an artifact of preparation in rat liver nuclei. We investigated the nuclei isolated from in vitro growing HD33 ascites cells with exclusively cytoplasmic, and from in vivo growing HD33 Ehrlich—Lettré ascites tumor cells with mainly intranuclear, glycogen deposition.

Control of glycogen content in retina: allosteric regulation of glycogen synthase. [PDF]
Retinal tissue is exceptional because it shows a high level of energy metabolism. Glycogen content represents the only energy reserve in retina, but its levels are limited.

Casein Kinase 1: A Wnt'er of Disconnect [PDF]
Phosphorylation of β-catenin, a central downstream component of the Wnt pathway, by glycogen synthase kinase 3 is essential for its targeted degradation by the proteosome.
