Description
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 is a serine-threonine protein kinase involved in regulation of metabolic enzymes such as glycogen synthase and ATP-Citrate lyase, and of protein phosphatase-1. It also phosphorylates brain tau-proteins, inducing an Alzheimer-like state, and protooncogene transcription factors. GSK-3β is one of two isozymes.
