A patient has a mutant liver glycogen synthase kinase (GSK) that cannot be phosphorylated. Answer the following questions (no more than 50 words per question) 1. What would be the default state of this mutant GSK? 2. How would this affect the amount and structure of glycogen particles in liver and in muscle cells? 3. What clinical features will you expect to see if the mutation affects liver GSK only? 4. What clinical features will you expect to see if the mutation affects muscle GSK only?
