Glycogen, Gluconeogenesis, and HMP shunt Flashcards
Hers disease deficient in
Hepatic glycogen phosphorylase
What is the rate limiting enzyme in glycogenolysis
Glycogen phosphorylase
Purpose of Malate shuttle in Gluconeogenesis
Transports OAA out of mitochondria into cytoplasm
Von Gierke clinical
- Severe hypoglycemia
- Lactic acidosis
- Hepatomegaly
- hyperlipidemia
- Hyperuricemia
- Short, doll-like face
Glycogen phosphorylase is stimulated by
Glucagon
Epinepherine
AMP
PEP carboxykinase converts
OAA to PEP

Cirrhosis
What are the 2 major functions of HMP shunt
NADPH production
Source of ribose 5-phosphate for nucleotide synthesis
Pyruvate Carboxylase converts
