GSK-3 is a ubiquitously expressed serine\/threonine protein kinase that phosphorylates and inactivates glycogen synthase. GSK-3 is a critical downstream element of the PI3K\/Akt cell survival pathway whose activity can be inhibited by Akt-mediated phosphorylation at Ser21 of GSK-3Î± and Ser9 of GSK-3Î² (2,3). GSK-3 has been implicated in the regulation of cell fate in and is a component of the Wnt signaling pathway required for and mammalian development (4). GSK-3 has been shown to regulate cyclin D1 proteolysis and subcellular localization (5). GSK-3Î± regulates the production of amyloid-Î² peptides, a major component of the plaques that accumulate with progression of Alzheimer disease. Administration of therapeutic concentrations of lithium, a GSK-3 inhibitor, attenuates amyloid-Î² production by specifically inhibiting the cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) by Î³-secretase, blocking accumulation of amyloid-Î² peptides in the brains of mice that overproduce APP (6).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nDKFZp686D0638; glycogen synthase kinase 3 alpha; glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta; Glycogen synthase kinase-3 alpha; Glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta; GSK-3 alpha; GSK-3 beta; GSK3A; GSK3alpha; GSK3B; GSK3beta; GSK3beta isoform; Serine\/threonine-protein kinase GSK3A; Serine\/threonine-protein kinase GSK3B\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Hm Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 51, 46\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799829139625,"sku":"5676T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-5676t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
