Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

The GSK3 protein known also as glycogen synthase kinase 3 has two isoforms: GSK3 alpha and GSK3 beta. Both isoforms have distinct yet significant mechanical roles. GSK3 alpha with a molecular weight of approximately 51 kDa and GSK3 beta weighing about 47 kDa act as serine/threonine kinases. These proteins are expressed in various tissues including the brain pancreas and liver. GSK3 is involved in the regulation of numerous cellular processes by phosphorylating its substrates impacting various cellular activities.
Biological function summary

GSK3 is integral in multiple signaling pathways and participates in the regulation of inflammation cell cycle and apoptosis. As part of the larger complex of signaling proteins GSK3 impacts the modulation of transcription factors and influences cellular differentiation and proliferation. The protein's kinase activity is necessary for maintaining cellular homeostasis and ensuring proper response to external signals.

Pathways

GSK3 influences critical pathways like Wnt and PI3K/Akt. Within the Wnt pathway GSK3 targets important proteins such as β-catenin where it plays an important role in controlling gene expression related to cell growth. In the PI3K/Akt pathway GSK3 acts as an important regulatory protein affecting insulin signaling and energy metabolism. Interactions with other kinases and transcription factors allow GSK3 to integrate various signaling cues that dictate cellular responses.

GSK3 has associations with neurodegenerative diseases and diabetes. In Alzheimer's disease GSK3 is linked to the formation of tau protein tangles contributing to neuronal dysfunction. Moreover in the context of diabetes GSK3 is involved in the insulin signaling pathway where dysregulation can lead to insulin resistance. It interacts with proteins such as tau in neurodegeneration and insulin receptor substrates in diabetes showing its significant role in these pathological conditions.

Target data

Constitutively active protein kinase that acts as a negative regulator in the hormonal control of glucose homeostasis, Wnt signaling and regulation of transcription factors and microtubules, by phosphorylating and inactivating glycogen synthase (GYS1 or GYS2), CTNNB1/beta-catenin, APC and AXIN1 (PubMed : 11749387, PubMed : 17478001, PubMed : 19366350). Requires primed phosphorylation of the majority of its substrates (PubMed : 11749387, PubMed : 17478001, PubMed : 19366350). Contributes to insulin regulation of glycogen synthesis by phosphorylating and inhibiting GYS1 activity and hence glycogen synthesis (PubMed : 11749387, PubMed : 17478001, PubMed : 19366350). Regulates glycogen metabolism in liver, but not in muscle (By similarity). May also mediate the development of insulin resistance by regulating activation of transcription factors (PubMed : 10868943, PubMed : 17478001). In Wnt signaling, regulates the level and transcriptional activity of nuclear CTNNB1/beta-catenin (PubMed : 17229088). Facilitates amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing and the generation of APP-derived amyloid plaques found in Alzheimer disease (PubMed : 12761548). May be involved in the regulation of replication in pancreatic beta-cells (By similarity). Is necessary for the establishment of neuronal polarity and axon outgrowth (By similarity). Through phosphorylation of the anti-apoptotic protein MCL1, may control cell apoptosis in response to growth factors deprivation (By similarity). Acts as a regulator of autophagy by mediating phosphorylation of KAT5/TIP60 under starvation conditions which activates KAT5/TIP60 acetyltransferase activity and promotes acetylation of key autophagy regulators, such as ULK1 and RUBCNL/Pacer (PubMed : 30704899). Negatively regulates extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway via death domain receptors. Promotes the formation of an anti-apoptotic complex, made of DDX3X, BRIC2 and GSK3B, at death receptors, including TNFRSF10B. The anti-apoptotic function is most effective with weak apoptotic signals and can be overcome by stronger stimulation (By similarity). Phosphorylates mTORC2 complex component RICTOR at 'Thr-1695' which facilitates FBXW7-mediated ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of RICTOR (PubMed : 25897075).
