背景信息:
Glycogen synthase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in glycogen synthesis. Its activity is regulated by a complex phosphorylation-dephosphorylation mechanism and by allosteric stimulators and inhibitors. Two isozymes of synthase, a skeletal muscle type (Glycogen synthase 1 - GYS1) and a liver type (Glycogen synthase 2 - GYS2), have been identified.
