physiological function | inhibiting Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum decouples glucokinase activation from receptor stimulation. Pharmacological release of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stimulates activation of a glucokinase optical biosensor and potentiates glucose metabolism. An optimized glucokinase biosensor using circularly permuted mCerulean3 proteins sensitively reports activation in response to insulin, glucagon-like peptide 1, and agents that raise cAMP levels. Transient, glucose-stimulated glucokinase activation is observed in TC3 and MIN6 cells. Half-maximal activation of the FRET-glucokinase sensor is estimated to occur at400 nM Ca2+. When expressed in islets, fluctuations in glucokinase activation are observed in response to glucose, and posttranslational activation of GCK enhances glucose metabolism by about 35% | Mus musculus |
