Dsh in turn inhibits glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3β in the β-catenin destruction complex, which mainly consists of Axin, GSK-3β, adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) and β-catenin.
At least eight potential serine and threonine phosphorylation sites are present in the human protein involving such kinases as casein kinase I and II, protein kinase A and C, glycogen synthase kinase 3 and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (Figure 2).
Null mutation of LIFR results in neonatal death and defects in many systems including absence of glial cells, osteoporosis, glycogen hyper-synthesis, placental defects [ 31 ] and loss of motor neuronal subsets that cripple suckling ability [ 32 ] . In all of the systems affected as a biological consequence of LIFR loss, an explanation of the mechanism of action can be designed around direct action of LIFR in each system.
In addition, the maternal GC surge effectively leads to fetal glycogen accumulation in the liver for energy demands at birth, increased fetal bioavailable tri-iodothyronine from thyroxine to allow for an increased metabolic rate and thermogenesis required at birth, maturation of the fetal small gut to prepare for digestion, heightened fetal adrenal medullar catecholamine release for control of the above processes, maturation of fetal kidney function and a switch to bone marrow hematopoiesis from the fetal liver [reviewed by [ 41 ] ]. The timing of this maternal surge suggests that LIFR function is required at this point in development as a moderator of the consequences of excess GC level.
Its activity is therefore important for both glycolysis and glycogen synthesis, and the altered Pgm allele frequency might therefore be relevant to the increased glycogen and lipid stores of the O strains.
