1 11522787 The muscle-specific protein phosphatase PP1G/R(GL)(G(M))is essential for activation of glycogen synthase by exercise.
2 11522787 PP1G/R(GL)(G(M)) is a glycogen/sarcoplasmic reticulum-associated type 1 phosphatase that was originally postulated to mediate insulin control of glycogen metabolism.
3 11522787 These results indicate that although PP1G/R(GL) is not necessary for activation of GS by insulin, it is essential for regulation of glycogen metabolism under basal conditions and in response to contractile activity, and may explain the reduced muscle glycogen content in the R(GL) KO mice, despite the normal insulin activation of GS.
4 15793265 We tested the candidate gene AMP deaminase 1 (AMPD1) for association with insulin-related traits because it codes for an enzyme that has the potential to influence multiple aspects of insulin pharmacodynamics.
5 15793265 By converting AMP to inosine monophosphate, AMPD1 plays a major role in regulating cellular AMP levels; AMP activates AMP kinase, an enzyme that modulates cellular energy and insulin action.
6 15793265 Insulin clearance is a highly heritable trait, and specific haplotypes within the AMPD1 gene, which encodes a skeletal muscle-specific protein, are associated with variation in insulin clearance.
7 15793265 We postulated that the processes of insulin action and insulin clearance in skeletal muscle are highly regulated and that AMPD1 function may play an important role in these phenomena.
