| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables glycogen (starch) synthase activity. Involved in glycogen biosynthetic process. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glycogen storage disease. Orthologous to human GYS2 (glycogen synthase 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a conditional allele knocked out in the liver results in abnormal glycogen homeostasis, altered glucose homeostasis, decreased exercise endurance, and a phenotype similar to patients with glycogen storage disease 0.
