Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine glycogen synthase activity correlates inversely with phosphorylation of glycogen synthase sites 2 + 2a and 3a. Insulin significantly decreases 2 + 2a phosphorylation in lean subjects only and induces a larger dephosphorylation at site 3 in lean compared with obese subjects. The exaggerated insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus compared with obese subjects is not reflected by differences in site 3 phosphorylation but is accompanied by a significantly higher site 1b phosphorylation during insulin stimulation. Hyperphosphorylation of another Ca2/calmodulin-dependent kinase-II target, phospholamban-Thr17, is also evident in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase by phosphatase treatment fully restores glycogen synthase activity in all groups Homo sapiens
