Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
glucose-6-phosphate D-glucose 6-phosphate binding structure, Arg580 forms an interaction with the 6-phosphate of D-glucose 6-phosphate, overview. The eukaryotic enzyme is activated by protein phosphatases and D-glucose 6-phosphate binding. The enzyme's response to D-glucose 6-phosphate is controlled by Arg583 and Arg587, while four additional arginine residues present within the same regulatory helix regulate the response to phosphorylation Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
additional information the eukaryotic enzyme is inhibited by protein kinase mediated phosphorylation, four arginine residues of a regulatory helix regulate the response to phosphorylation. When Thr668 is phosphorylated, Arg580 and Arg581 play a role in stabilizing the inhibited conformation by directly interacting with the phosphate group at or near the N-terminus of the regulatory helix, possibly near one of the sulfate binding sites in our basal state structure Saccharomyces cerevisiae

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution glycogen synthase homologues in bacteria and archaea lack regulation, while the eukaryotic enzymes are inhibited by protein kinase mediated phosphorylation and activated by protein phosphatases and D-glucose 6-phosphate binding Saccharomyces cerevisiae
additional information in the basal activity state and D-glucose 6-phosphate activated state, the enzyme is assembled into an unusual tetramer by an insertion unique to the eukaryotic enzymes, and this subunit interface is rearranged by the binding of D-glucose 6-phosphate, which frees the active site cleft and facilitates catalysis. Structure function in enzyme regulation, overview Saccharomyces cerevisiae
