Insulin-stimulated hepatic glycogen synthesis is central to glucose homeostasis. Here, we show that PPP1R3G, a regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1), is directly phosphorylated by AKT. PPP1R3G phosphorylation fluctuates with fasting-refeeding cycle and is required for insulin-stimulated dephosphorylation, i.e., activation of glycogen synthase (GS) in hepatocytes. In this study, we demonstrate that knockdown of PPP1R3G significantly inhibits insulin response. The introduction of wildtype PPP1R3G, and not phosphorylation-defective mutants, increases hepatic glycogen deposition, bloodglucose clearance, and insulin sensitivity in vivo. Mechanistically, phosphorylated PPP1R3G displays increased binding for, and promotes dephosphorylation of, phospho-GS. Furthermore, PPP1R3B, another regulatory subunit of PP1, binds to the dephosphorylated GS, thereby relaying insulin stimulation to hepatic glycogen deposition. Importantly, this PP1-mediated signaling cascade is independent of GSK3. Therefore, we reveal a regulatory axis consisting of insulin/AKT/PPP1R3G/PPP1R3B that operates in parallel to the GSK3-dependent pathway, controlling glycogen synthesis and glucose homeostasis in insulin signaling.
