Background Glycogen Synthase (GS) is a key enzyme in the regulation of glycogen metabolism. GS catalyzes the incorporation of UDP-glucose incorporation into glycogen. The activity of glycogen synthase is regulated by hormonal stimuli (insulin, catecholamines and glucagons) and non-hormonal stimuli (blood glucose level and exercise). Two main isoforms of mammalian GS are designated as muscle (glycogen synthase 1) and liver (glycogen synthase 2). Most tissues express glycogen synthase 1, whereas glycogen synthase 2 appears to be tissue-specific. The two isoforms have 70% identical amino acid sequence. Glycogen synthase can be phosphorylated by multiple kinases including glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), mitogen-activated protein kinase-related protein kinase (DYRK), and SAPK2b/p38b which leads to its inactivation.
