Application
GSM (GSK3 substrate peptide) has been used:
- in in vitro glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3)-3β activity assay to measure the kinase activity of GSK-3
- as a supplement in perfusates in kinase activity assay to determine the effect of the phosphatase-activating domain (PAD) peptide on squid axoplasm
- as a control in Kinase-Glo luminescent kinase assay to measure the influence of ibuprofen treatment on the catalytic activity of the kinase GSK3β
Biochem/physiol Actions
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is a protein kinase, which regulates glycogen metabolism. It regulates various cell functions, like signaling by insulin, growth factors and nutrients, and the specification of cell fates during embryonic development. GSK3 is involved modulating in apoptosis, cell division, and microtubule function.
Quality
Routinely evaluated as a substrate for GSK3β (Catalog # 14-306).
Physical form
1 mg of GSM lyophilized from 1 mL sterile, distilled water. Lyophilized powder.
Storage and Stability
Lyophilized: 2 years at -20°C. Rehydrated: 6 months at -20°C

The molecular events that drive Wnt-induced regulation of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) activity are poorly defined. In this study, we found that protein kinase Cζ (PKCζ) and GSK-3β interact mainly in colon cancer cells. Wnt stimulation induced a rapid

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) was initially described as a key enzyme involved in glycogen metabolism, but is now known to regulate a diverse array of cell functions. The study of the substrate specificity and regulation of GSK3 activity has

Lithium inhibits (Li(+)) glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) by competition for magnesium (Mg(2+)), but not ATP or substrate. Here, we show that the group II metal ion beryllium (Be(2+)) is a potent inhibitor of GSK-3 and competes for both Mg(2+) and
