Background Information
Glycogen synthase 1 (GYS1, GS) catalyzes the key step of glycogen synthesis and plays an important role in glycogen metabolism in liver and muscle. In kidney tissues, glycogen synthase 1 (GYS1) is the most important rate-limiting enzyme functioning in the last step of glycogen synthesis. Pathologically, its deficiency has been shown to cause muscle glycogen storage disease type 0 and death. Studies of tumors showed that GYS1 was rapidly induced under hypoxic conditions and positively correlated with glycogen accumulation in glioblastoma, breast, and colon cancer cell lines. GYS1 is phosphorylated at nine sites and insulin stimulates dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase. Insulin stimulates dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase via PKB-mediated phosphorylation of GSK3. Phosphorylation of GSK3 decreases kinase activity which will decrease phosphorylation of GS and increase glycogens synthase fractional activity. (PMID: 32802186, PMID: 30443599, PMID: 22232606)
