GSK-3 is serine/threonine protein kinase which regulates the addition of phosphate molecules onto serineand threonine amino acid residues. Serine/threonine protein kinases are responsible for phosphorylating the serine/threonine kinase receptors which play a role in the regulation of cell proliferation, programmed cell death (apoptosis), cell differentiation, and embryonic development.(2) GSK-3 has two isoforms, GSK-3 beta and GSK-3 alpha. GSK-3 beta is more involved in energy metabolism, neuronal cell development, and body pattern formation, while GSK-3 alpha has more function with WNT signaling pathways. GSK-3 beta is found in most mammals, all with similar structure and function. In experiments when GSK-3 beta was perturbed in mice, embryonic lethality during mid-gestation was demonstrated.

GSK-3 beta has been shown to negatively regulates TGF-beta1 and Angiotensin II-mediated cellular activity through interaction with Smad3. GSK-3 beta directly interacts with Smad3, preventing its movement into the nucleolus, which don't allow it to perform cell death. This forces Angiotensin II apoptosis in cardiac myocytes.(1) Other enzymes that this kinase interacts with are: AKAP11, AXIN1, AXIN2, AR, CTNNB1, DNM1L, MACF1 MUC1, SMAD3[ NOTCH1,NOTCH2, P53, PRKAR2A, SGK3, and TSC2.(3) Recent research in regards to GSK-3 includes type II diabetes , Alzheimer's Disease, inflammation, cancer, and bipolar disorder. This page demonstrates a GSK-3 complex with a Staurosporine inhibitor.
