Entry terms

  • Glycogen Synthase Kinase
  • Kinase, Glycogen Synthase
  • Synthase Kinase, Glycogen

Scope note

  • A class of protein-serine-threonine kinases that was originally found as one of the three types of kinases that phosphorylate GLYCOGEN SYNTHASE. Glycogen synthase kinases along with CA(2+)-CALMODULIN DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASES and CYCLIC AMP-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASES regulate glycogen synthase activity.

History note

  • 2003; use CA(2+)-CALMODULIN DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE 1994-2002
