Control of Glycogen Synthase Phosphatase from Rat Heart
Glycogen synthase phosphatase from rat heart has been partially purified by ultrafiltration techniques, and the properties of this enzyme have been examined by using an assay based on the conversion of glycogen synthase D into I. As observed in other tissues, the phosphatase from heart was activated by both Mg2+ and glucose-6-P. The specificity of this activation was examined and it was shown t...
متن کاملInsulin stimulation of heart glycogen synthase D phosphatase (protein phosphatase).
Insulin rapidly produced an increase in per cent of total heart glycogen synthase in the I form in fed rats. In fasted rats the response was diminished and delayed. In diabetic animals there was no response over the 15-min time period studied. Since synthase phosphatase activity is necessary for synthase D to I conversion, the phosphatase activity was determined in extracts from these groups of...
متن کاملThe Potential Role of Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3β in Neuropathy-Induced Apoptosis in Spinal Cord
Introduction: Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3β (GSK-3β) participates in several signaling pathways and plays a crucial role in neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, and neuropathic pain. The ratio of phosphorylated GSK-3β over total GSK-3β (p-GSK-3β/t-GSK-3β) is reduced following nerve injury. Apoptosis is a hallmark of many neuronal dysfunctions in the context of neuropathic pain. Thus, this st...
متن کاملGlycogen Synthase Kinases
Extracts of rat tissues contain kinases which catalyze the conversion of glycogen synthase from the glucose 6-phosphate-independent (I) form to the glucose 6-phosphate-dependent (D) form. These kinases were stimulated by adenosine 3’:5’ monophosphate (cyclic AMP). The glycogen synthase kinase activity ratio (activity in the absence of cyclic AMP divided by activity in the presence of cyclic AMP...
