Glycogen is the primary storage form of glucose. Glycogen synthesis and breakdown are tightly controlled by glycogen synthase (GYS) and phosphorylase, respectively. The enzyme responsible for dephosphorylating GYS and phosphorylase, which results in their activation (GYS) or inactivation (phosphorylase) to robustly stimulate glycogen synthesis, is protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). However, our understanding of how PP1 recruits these substrates is limited. Here, we show how PP1, together with its muscle glycogen–targeting (GM) regulatory subunit, recruits and selectively dephosphorylates its substrates. Our molecular data reveal that the GM carbohydrate binding module (GMCBM21), which is amino-terminal to the GM PP1 binding domain, has a dual function in directing PP1 substrate specificity: It either directly recruits substrates (i.e., GYS) or recruits them indirectly by localization (via glycogen for phosphorylase). Our data provide the molecular basis for PP1 regulation by GM and reveal how PP1-mediated dephosphorylation is driven by scaffolding-based substrate recruitment.

Hepatic glycogen synthesis is impaired in insulin-dependent diabetic rats owing to defective activation of glycogen synthase by glycogen-bound protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). The identification of three glycogen-targetting subunits in liver, GL, R5/PTG and R6, which form complexes with the catalytic subunit of PP1 (PP1c), raises the question of whether some or all of these PP1c complexes are subject to regulation by insulin. In liver lysates of control rats, R5 and R6 complexes with PP1c were found to contribute significantly (16 and 21% respectively) to the phosphorylase phosphatase activity associated with the glycogen-targetting subunits, GL–PP1c accounting for the remainder (63%). In liver lysates of insulin-dependent diabetic and of starved rats, the phosphorylase phosphatase activities of the R5 and GL complexes with PP1c were shown by specific immunoadsorption assays to be substantially decreased, and the levels of R5 and GL were shown by immunoblotting to be much lower than those in control extracts. The phosphorylase phosphatase activity of R6–PP1c and the concentration of R6 protein were unaffected by these treatments. Insulin administration to diabetic rats restored the levels of R5 and GL and their associated activities. The regulation of R5 protein levels by insulin was shown to correspond to changes in the level of the mRNA, as has been found for GL. The in vitro glycogen synthase phosphatase/phosphorylase phosphatase activity ratio of R5-PP1c was lower than that of GL–PP1c, suggesting that R5–PP1c may function as a hepatic phosphorylase phosphatase, whereas GL–PP1c may be the major hepatic glycogen synthase phosphatase. In hepatic lysates, more than half the R6 was present in the glycogen-free supernatant, suggesting that R6 may have lower affinity for glycogen than R5 and GL

Hepatic glycogen synthesis is impaired in insulin-dependent diabetic rats and in adrenalectomized starved rats, and although this is known to be due to defective activation of glycogen synthase by glycogen synthase phosphatase, the underlying molecular mechanism has not been delineated. Glycogen synthase phosphatase comprises the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) complexed with the hepatic glycogen-binding subunit, termed GL. In liver extracts of insulin-dependent diabetic and adrenalectomized starved rats, the level of GL was shown by immunoblotting to be substantially reduced compared with that in control extracts, whereas the level of PP1 catalytic subunit was not affected by these treatments. Insulin administration to diabetic rats restored the level of GL and prolonged administration raised it above the control levels, whereas re-feeding partially restored the GL level in adrenalectomized starved rats. The regulation of GL protein levels by insulin and starvation/feeding was shown to correlate with changes in the level of the GL mRNA, indicating that the long-term regulation of the hepatic glycogen-associated form of PP1 by insulin, and hence the activity of hepatic glycogen synthase, is predominantly mediated through changes in the level of the GL mRNA.

Glycogen-targeting PP1 (protein phosphatase 1) subunit GL (coded for by the PPP1R3B gene) is expressed in human, but not rodent, skeletal muscle. Its effects on muscle glycogen metabolism are unknown. We show that GL mRNA levels in primary cultured human myotubes are similar to those in freshly excised muscle, unlike subunits GM (gene PPP1R3A) or PTG (protein targeting to glycogen; gene PPP1R3C), which decrease strikingly. In cultured myotubes, expression of the genes coding for GL, GM and PTG is not regulated by glucose or insulin. Overexpression of GL activates myotube GS (glycogen synthase), glycogenesis in glucose-replete and -depleted cells and glycogen accumulation. Compared with overexpressed GM, GL has a more potent activating effect on glycogenesis, while marked enhancement of their combined action is only observed in glucose-replete cells. GL does not affect GP (glycogen phosphorylase) activity, while co-overexpression with muscle GP impairs GL activation of GS in glucose-replete cells. GL enhances long-term glycogenesis additively to glucose depletion and insulin, although GL does not change the phosphorylation of GSK3 (GS kinase 3) on Ser9 or its upstream regulator kinase Akt/protein kinase B on Ser473, nor its response to insulin. In conclusion, in cultured human myotubes, the GL gene is expressed as in muscle tissue and is unresponsive to glucose or insulin, as are GM and PTG genes. GL activates GS regardless of glucose, does not regulate GP and stimulates glycogenesis in combination with insulin and glucose depletion.

ABSTRACT PASKIN is a novel mammalian serine/threonine kinase containing two PAS (Per-Arnt-Sim) domains. PASKIN is related to the Rhizobium oxygen sensor protein FixL and to AMP-regulated kinases. Like FixL, the sensory PAS domain of PASKIN controls the kinase activity by autophosphorylation in a (unknown) ligand-dependent manner. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the two PASKIN orthologues PSK1 and PSK2 phosphorylate three translation factors and two enzymes involved in glycogen synthesis, thereby coordinately regulating protein synthesis and glycolytic flux. To elucidate the function of mammalian PASKIN, we inactivated the mouse Paskin gene by homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells. Paskin −/− mice showed normal development, growth, and reproduction. The targeted integration of a lacZ reporter gene allowed the identification of the cell types expressing mouse PASKIN. Surprisingly, PASKIN expression is strongly upregulated in postmeiotic germ cells during spermatogenesis. However, fertility and sperm production and motility were not affected by the PASKIN knockout. The Ppp1r7 gene encoding Sds22, a regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 1, shares the promoter region with the Paskin gene, pointing towards a common transcriptional regulation. Indeed, Sds22 colocalized with the cell types expressing PASKIN in vivo, suggesting a functional role of protein phosphatase-1 in the regulation of PASKIN autophosphorylation.
