This is the allele’s direct fitness. The allele can also pass extra copies of itself to the next generation as the result of the increased fitness of relatives that benefit from the altruistic individual’s actions. This is the allele’s indirect fitness.

The GPK in skeletal muscle is a huge protein with multiple subunits:

Kinase subunit contains the catalytic activity that activates GP 

Regulatory subunits is the ubiquitous protein calmodulin
