Glycogen [starch] synthase, muscle

UniProtKB accession:  P13807

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  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.
