Preferred term

glycogen synthase kinases

Type

  • Chemical

Definition

  • Information 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.
