Synonyms

Glycogen Synthase Kinase

Kinase, Glycogen Synthase

Kinases, Glycogen Synthase

Synthase Kinase, Glycogen

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.
