"GCK" - Glucokinase in Homo sapiens
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
some 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

GCKGlucokinase; Catalyzes the initial step in utilization of glucose by the beta-cell and liver at physiological glucose concentration. Glucokinase has a high Km for glucose, and so it is effective only when glucose is abundant. The role of GCK is to provide G6P for the synthesis of glycogen. Pancreatic glucokinase plays an important role in modulating insulin secretion. Hepatic glucokinase helps to facilitate the uptake and conversion of glucose by acting as an insulin-sensitive determinant of hepatic glucose usage (466 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
GCKR
Glucokinase regulatory protein; Inhibits glucokinase (GCK) by forming an inactive complex with this enzyme. The affinity of GCKR for GCK is modulated by fructose metabolites- GCKR with bound fructose 6- phosphate has increased affinity for GCK, while GCKR with bound fructose 1-phosphate has strongly decreased affinity for GCK and does not inhibit GCK activity (625 aa)
     
  0.995
GPI
Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase; Besides it’s role as a glycolytic enzyme, mammalian GPI can function as a tumor-secreted cytokine and an angiogenic factor (AMF) that stimulates endothelial cell motility. GPI is also a neurotrophic factor (Neuroleukin) for spinal and sensory neurons (569 aa)
     
 
  0.976
G6PC
Glucose-6-phosphatase; Hydrolyzes glucose-6-phosphate to glucose in the endoplasmic reticulum. Forms with the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (SLC37A4/G6PT) the complex responsible for glucose production through glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Hence, it is the key enzyme in homeostatic regulation of blood glucose levels; Belongs to the glucose-6-phosphatase family (357 aa)
     
 
  0.973
PDX1
Pancreas/duodenum homeobox protein 1; Activates insulin, somatostatin, glucokinase, islet amyloid polypeptide and glucose transporter type 2 gene transcription. Particularly involved in glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene transcription. As part of a PDX1-PBX1b-MEIS2b complex in pancreatic acinar cells is involved in the transcriptional activation of the ELA1 enhancer; the complex binds to the enhancer B element and cooperates with the transcription factor 1 complex (PTF1) bound to the enhancer A element. Binds preferentially the DNA motif 5’-[CT]TAAT[TG]-3’. During development [...] (283 aa)
         
  0.971
NEUROD1
Neurogenic differentiation factor 1; Acts as a transcriptional activator- mediates transcriptional activation by binding to E box-containing promoter consensus core sequences 5’-CANNTG-3’. Associates with the p300/CBP transcription coactivator complex to stimulate transcription of the secretin gene as well as the gene encoding the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor CDKN1A. Contributes to the regulation of several cell differentiation pathways, like those that promote the formation of early retinal ganglion cells, inner ear sensory neurons, granule cells forming either the cerebellum or [...] (356 aa)
         
  0.965
INS
Insulin; Insulin decreases blood glucose concentration. It increases cell permeability to monosaccharides, amino acids and fatty acids. It accelerates glycolysis, the pentose phosphate cycle, and glycogen synthesis in liver (110 aa)
       
 
  0.962
G6PD
Glucose-6-phosphate 1-dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the rate-limiting step of the oxidative pentose-phosphate pathway, which represents a route for the dissimilation of carbohydrates besides glycolysis. The main function of this enzyme is to provide reducing power (NADPH) and pentose phosphates for fatty acid and nucleic acid synthesis; Belongs to the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase family (545 aa)
     
 
  0.959
TREH
Trehalase; Intestinal trehalase is probably involved in the hydrolysis of ingested trehalose; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 37 family (583 aa)
     
 
  0.946
H6PD
GDH/6PGL endoplasmic bifunctional protein; Oxidizes glucose-6-phosphate and glucose, as well as other hexose-6-phosphates; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the glucosamine/galactosamine-6-phosphate isomerase family. 6- phosphogluconolactonase subfamily (802 aa)
     
 
  0.944
PGM1
Phosphoglucomutase-1; This enzyme participates in both the breakdown and synthesis of glucose; Belongs to the phosphohexose mutase family (580 aa)
