92 10744755 To establish the relative control exerted by glucokinase and GKRP, we applied metabolic control analysis to determine the flux control coefficient of GKRP on glucose metabolism in hepatocytes.
93 10744755 Adenovirus-mediated overexpression of GKRP (by up to 2-fold above endogenous levels) increased glucokinase binding and inhibited glucose phosphorylation, glycolysis, and glycogen synthesis over a wide range of concentrations of glucose and sorbitol.

124 10744755 The control coefficient of GKRP on glycogen synthesis decreased with increasing glucokinase overexpression (4-fold) at elevated glucose concentration (35 mM), which favors dissociation of glucokinase from GKRP, but not at 7.5 mM glucose.
125 10744755 Under the latter conditions, glucokinase and GKRP have large and inverse control coefficients on glycogen synthesis, suggesting that a large component of the positive control coefficient of glucokinase is counterbalanced by the negative coefficient of GKRP.
126 10744755 It is concluded that glucokinase and GKRP exert reciprocal control; therefore, mutations in GKRP affecting the expression or function of the protein may impact the phenotype even in the heterozygote state, similar to glucokinase mutations in maturity onset diabetes of the young type 2.
127 10744755 Our results show that the mechanism comprising glucokinase and GKRP confers a markedly extended responsiveness and sensitivity to changes in glucose concentration on the hepatocyte.
