The separate liver promoter allows glucokinase to be regulated differently in hepatocytes than in the neuroendocrine cells. Neuroendocrine cells of the pancreas, gut, and brain share some common aspects of glucokinase production, regulation, and function. [30] These tissues are collectively referred to as "neuroendocrine" cells in this context.
The glucokinase regulatory protein (GKRP) also known as glucokinase (hexokinase 4) regulator (GCKR) is a protein produced in hepatocytes (liver cells). GKRP binds and moves glucokinase (GK), thereby controlling both activity and intracellular location [1] [2] of this key enzyme of glucose metabolism. [3] GKRP is a 68 kD protein of 626 amino acids.
Glucokinase (GK) is an enzyme that helps in the glycolytic pathway by phosphorylating glucose into glucose-6-phosphate (G6P). It is an isozyme of hexokinase and is found mainly in pancreatic β cells, but also liver, gut, and brain cells where glycolysis cause glucose-induced insulin secretion. [2]
The gene product is a regulatory protein that inhibits glucokinase in liver and pancreatic islet cells by binding non-covalently to form an inactive complex with the enzyme. This gene is considered a susceptibility gene candidate for a form of maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

You'll never find someone who loves Ragdoll cats like one woman does. The vet tech was so excited when she saw there was a Ragdoll on the schedule for that day.
