drug development | glycogen synthase kinase-3 activity and substrate phosphorylation, e.g. glycogen synthase, tau, CRMP2 and amyloid precursor protein, are reported to be abnormally high in both Type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. The enzyme GSK3 is a target for development of isozyme- and splice variant-selective inhibitors | Homo sapiens |

CT99021 | inhibition of GSK3 with CT99021 has little effect on the relative level of phosphorylation of Ser199 or Ser404 of human tau, but inhibition of GSK3beta using CT99021 results in dephosphorylation of endogenous c-Jun, Inh-2 and beta-catenin and dramatically increased c-Myc and beta-catenin expression | Homo sapiens |

additional information | compared to GSK3beta1, the GSK3b2 isoform contains a 13 amino acid insert, which lies within the catalytic domain (between residues 303 and 304 of GSK3beta1), in a linker region flanked by a-helices (between domain X and XI) | Homo sapiens |
