Insights into the biochemical and genetic basis of glucokinase activation from naturally occurring hypoglycemia mutations.

Glucokinase (GCK) is a key regulatory enzyme in the pancreatic beta-cell and catalyzes the rate-limiting step for beta-cell glucose metabolism. We report two novel GCK mutations (T65I and W99R) that have arisen de novo in two families with familial hypoglycemia. Insulin levels, although inappropriately high for the degree of hypoglycemia, remain regulated by fluctuations in glycemia, and pancre...

Molecular basis for the role of glucokinase regulatory protein as the allosteric switch for glucokinase.

Glucokinase (GK) is a monomeric allosteric enzyme and plays a pivotal role in blood glucose homeostasis. GK is regulated by GK regulatory protein (GKRP), and indirectly by allosteric effectors of GKRP. Despite the critical roles of GK and GKRP, the molecular basis for the allosteric regulation mechanism of GK by GKRP remains unclear. We determined the crystal structure of Xenopus GK and GKRP co...

Glucokinase and glucokinase regulatory protein: mutual dependence for nuclear localization.

Conditional expression of the glucokinase regulatory protein in insulinoma cells, under control of the reverse tetracycline-dependent transactivator, was used to investigate whether expression of this protein de novo would alter the intracellular distribution of glucokinase. The regulatory protein, which was undetectable in the basal state, could be induced by doxycycline to levels comparable t...

Role of Glucokinase in the Subcellular Localization of Glucokinase Regulatory Protein

Glucokinase (GCK) is the rate-limiting enzyme of liver glucose metabolism. Through protein-protein interactions, glucokinase regulatory protein (GCKR) post-transcriptionally regulates GCK function in the liver, and causes its nuclear localization. However the role of GCK in regulating GCKR localization is unknown. In the present study, using in vitro and in vivo models, we examined the levels o...

Evolution of glucose utilization: glucokinase and glucokinase regulator protein.

Glucose is an essential nutrient that must be distributed throughout the body to provide energy to sustain physiological functions. Glucose is delivered to distant tissues via be blood stream, and complex systems have evolved to maintain the levels of glucose within a narrow physiological range. Phosphorylation of glucose, by glucokinase, is an essential component of glucose homeostasis, both f...
