DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this proposal is to understand the structural and functional properties of the enzymes responsible for the synthesis and elongation of the glucose storage polymer, glycogen. Glycogen is an important storage reserve of glucose and the mechanism by which the synthesis of glycogen is initiated and elongated is conserved from yeast to humans. Our recent structural work on yeast glycogen synthase has provided important new insight into the functional properties of all eukaryotic enzymes. The long-range goal of this proposal is to build off this initial work to delineate the structural context for the reaction catalyzed by glycogen synthase and uncover the structural interplay between glycogen association and glucose-6- phosphate activation of glycogen synthase. As part of this effort, we will initialize a screen for small molecule modulators of human glycogen synthase that can manipulate the activity state of the enzyme and promote glucose disposal under conditions found in Type 2 Diabetes or inhibit the action of glycogen synthase as a potential approach for treating glycogen storage disorders, such as Lafora and Pompe's Disease. Structure determination will be an integral part or our efforts as complexes between glycogen synthase and its substrates in combination with glucose-6-phosphate or novel agonists/antagonists of the activator binding site will provide important structure/activity relationships that will guide further development of our research. As part of our screening efforts in Aim 2 we will produce novel enzymatic forms representing homogenous phosphorylation states and these will be tested against the novel modulators of glycogen synthase identified in this aim. In addition, we will pursue structure determination of these novel modulators in the presence and absence of substrates, substrate analogs or glucose-6-phosphate which will link to our work in aim 1. Aim 3 will determine the molecular mechanism of catalysis and the specificity of glycosyltransfer. One of the goals of this aim is to understand whether catalytic mistakes produced by glycogen synthase are ultimately responsible for aberrations in glycogen processing. This aim will draw upon the structural information developed in aim 1 and will employ wild-type and mutant forms of both yeast Gsy2p and human glycogen synthase and will feed important structure/activity information into our modulator discovery and development as part of aim 2.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案的总体目标是了解负责葡萄糖储存聚合物糖原的合成和伸长的酶的结构和功能特性。糖原是葡萄糖的重要储存储备，并且从酵母到人开始启动并伸长糖原的合成的机制。我们最近在酵母糖原合酶方面的结构性工作为所有真核酶的功能特性提供了重要的新见解。该提案的远程目标是建立这项初始工作，以描绘糖原合酶催化的反应的结构环境，并揭示糖原关联与糖基糖激素激活糖原合成酶之间的结构相互作用。作为这项工作的一部分，我们将初始化人糖原合酶的小分子调节剂的屏幕，该筛选可以操纵酶的活性状态，并在2型糖尿病中发现的条件下促进葡萄糖处理，或抑制糖原合酶作为治疗Glycogen储存异常的潜在方法，例如治疗Glycogen的方法，例如LaLaforfora和Pompe。结构确定将是我们的组成部分或我们的努力，因为糖原合酶及其底物之间的复合物与激活剂结合位点的葡萄糖-6-磷酸或新型激动剂/拮抗剂结合使用，将提供重要的结构/活动关系，以指导我们的研究进一步发展。作为AIM 2的筛查工作的一部分，我们将产生代表同质磷酸化态的新型酶促形式，这些酶形式将针对此目标中鉴定的糖原合酶的新型调节剂进行测试。此外，我们将在存在和不存在底物，底物类似物或6-磷酸的情况下对这些新型调节剂的结构进行确定，这将与我们在AIM 1中的工作联系起来。AIM3将确定催化的分子机制和糖基转移的特异性。该目标的目标之一是了解糖原合酶产生的催化错误是否最终是糖原加工中的畸变的原因。该目标将借鉴AIM 1中开发的结构信息，并将采用酵母GSY2P和人糖原合酶的野生型和突变形式，并将重要的结构/活动信息馈送到我们的调节剂发现和开发中，作为目标2的一部分。
