glucose-6-phosphate | D-glucose 6-phosphate binding structure, Arg580 forms an interaction with the 6-phosphate of D-glucose 6-phosphate, overview. The eukaryotic enzyme is activated by protein phosphatases and D-glucose 6-phosphate binding. The enzyme's response to D-glucose 6-phosphate is controlled by Arg583 and Arg587, while four additional arginine residues present within the same regulatory helix regulate the response to phosphorylation | Saccharomyces cerevisiae |

Inhibitors | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
additional information | the eukaryotic enzyme is inhibited by protein kinase mediated phosphorylation, four arginine residues of a regulatory helix regulate the response to phosphorylation. When Thr668 is phosphorylated, Arg580 and Arg581 play a role in stabilizing the inhibited conformation by directly interacting with the phosphate group at or near the N-terminus of the regulatory helix, possibly near one of the sulfate binding sites in our basal state structure | Saccharomyces cerevisiae |

General Information | Comment | Organism |

evolution | glycogen synthase homologues in bacteria and archaea lack regulation, while the eukaryotic enzymes are inhibited by protein kinase mediated phosphorylation and activated by protein phosphatases and D-glucose 6-phosphate binding | Saccharomyces cerevisiae |
additional information | in the basal activity state and D-glucose 6-phosphate activated state, the enzyme is assembled into an unusual tetramer by an insertion unique to the eukaryotic enzymes, and this subunit interface is rearranged by the binding of D-glucose 6-phosphate, which frees the active site cleft and facilitates catalysis.
