Gene nameGYS2
Protein nameGlycogen [starch] synthase, liver (EC 2.4.1.11) (Glycogen synthase 2)
Synonyms
DescriptionFUNCTION: Glycogen synthase participates in the glycogen biosynthetic process along with glycogenin and glycogen branching enzyme. Extends the primer composed of a few glucose units formed by glycogenin by adding new glucose units to it. In this context, glycogen synthase transfers the glycosyl residue from UDP-Glc to the non-reducing end of alpha-1,4-glucan. .
