DiseaseGYS1_HUMAN Glycogen storage disease due to muscle and heart glycogen synthase deficiency. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionGYS1_HUMAN 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.[1] References
