About Gys1

Summary

Enables glycogen (starch) synthase activity. Acts upstream of or within glycogen biosynthetic process and heart development. Located in cytoplasm and inclusion body. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cardiovascular system disease. Orthologous to human GYS1 (glycogen synthase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
