A

Glycogenesis (Glycogen Synthesis) happends after a meal and you stimluate glycogen synthsis and inhibit glycogen degreation.

25
Q

In Glycogenolysis what are the 3 major emzymes

A

Glycogen Phosphorylase Debranching enzyme
a-1,6-Glucosidase

26
Q

What is the end product of Glycognolysis?

A

Glucose 1- Phosphate

27
Q

Glucose 1- Phosphate is catalyzed by _ _ and a _ enzyme.

A

Glycogen phosphorlase and a debranching enzyme.

28
Q

Glucose 1- Phosphate is converted to _

A

Glucose 6- phosphate

29
Q

What is are the fates of Glucose 6- phosphate and fill in the blanks

A

Glycoloysis
Liver
Pentose Phosphate pathway

30
Q

what does Glycogen phosphorylase
use to catalyze a _ _

A

Phosphorolysis reaction

31
Q

Glycogen phosphorylase starts at the _ ends and only cleaves -, bonds

A

Glycogen phosphorylase starts at the nonreducing ends and only cleaves a-1,4 glycosidic bonds.

32
Q

Glycogen phosphorylase
runs in to an obstacle at what point?

A

at the branch point

33
Q

Explain how the debrancing Enzyme works?

A

Phosphorylase starts at the non-reducing end

Then starts cleaving off residues but when is gets to four residues form the branch point.

pops off and transferase comes in and takes the last (3) of the four residues off and moves them to an new core and a-1,6 Glucosidase will have phosphorlase come in and the process will repeat.

34
Q

Glycogen phosphorylase uses _ to do its job.

A

Pi and has a simple binging cite.

35
Q

Regulation of Glycogenolysis

A

energy charge state of cell

is respnsive to insulin, epinephrine, and glucagon

36
Q

what is the primary control point of Glycogen Metabolism?

A

Glycogen Phosphorylase

37
Q

what are the ways that Glycogen Metabolism is controlled?

A

Primary control point is Glycogen Phosphorylase:

-senses energy charge state of cell

-is responsive to insulin, epinephrine, and glucagon

38
Q

Regulation of liver and muscle phophoryalse compare and contrast. These are isozymes.

A

Allosteric Regulation of Glycogen phosphorylase by Phosphorylation: (liver and muscle enzyme can both be in either a or b form)

Liver phosphorylase
R and T state (glucose)
Phosphorylated
(usually active; phosphorylase a;)

Mussle phosphorylase
R and T state (AMP)
(usually inactive; phosphorylase b; muscle)

a to b is a function of if it is

39
Q

what is the defalt state in the liver and is it actave or not active.

A

Phosphorylase a is the defalt state and it active.

40
Q

what is the defalt state in the muscle and is it actave or not active.

A

usually inactive: phosphorylase b

41
Q

Alot of glucose around do you need to be breaking down glucose? Would glucose activate or deactivate these enzymes?

A

No they would deactivate the enzymes and it would be in the T state.

42
Q

Phosphorylase b to a can happen via _

A

Phosphorylase b to a can happen via phosphorylation

43
Q

Phosphorylase b to a can happen via phosphorylation which Phosphorylase b is the defalt state of muslce phosphorlase can be in the _ state and _ state. What are the modulators for this?

A

R and T state
AMP
ATP
Glucose 6-phosphate

44
Q

Phosphorylase a go threw and _ and _ state transition. What is the way that is is modlated in the liver.

A

R and T state and is modlated in the liver by glucose

45
Q

Phosphorylase bto acan happen via phosphorylation the primary control for b –> a is _.

A

Hormonal primary contoral b –> a

46
Q

If you have alot of ATP around do you need to be breaking down glycogen? and why?

A

No becasue breaking down glycogen make glucose and goes to glycolysis and the Kreb cycle -> ECT-> and

47
Q

If you have alot of ATP around what state would Phosphorylase b is usually be in?

A

The T state

48
Q

If you have alot of AMP around what state would Phosphorylase b is usually be in?

A

T state

49
Q

If you have alot of G6P around what state would Phosphorylase b is usually be in?

A

T state

50
Q

Phosphorylase a is _ and the _ state of the liver.

A

Phosphorylase a is active and the defalt state of the liver phosphorylase

51
Q

Phosphorylase b is usually _ b/c the equilibrium Favors the _ state.

A

Phosphorylase b is usually inactive b/c the equilibrium Favors the R state.
inactive

52
Q

Phosphorylase b is usually _ b/c the equilibrium Favors the _ state.

A

Phosphorylase b is usually inactive b/c the equilibrium Favors the T state.
inactive

53
Q

Phosphorylase b is located in the _ and Phosphorylase a is located in the _.

A

Phosphorylase b mussle
Phosphorylase a liver

54
Q

Know this

R -T is glucose shift to T state
liver

A

R -T is glucose shift to T state

mussle

55
Q

If you have alot of AMP around do you need to be breaking down glycogen. what state with AMP around?

A

Yes, b/c is means you’ve gone throught all your ATP and now you have AMP around is going to shut the T state to the R state.

56
Q

In the muscle what will make the R state go to the T state.

A

ATP and Glucose 6-phosphate.

57
Q

Expain what is means that phosphorylase is regulated by phosprylation by phosphorylase kinase.

A

Protein Kinase A does the phosphorylation for regulation. Purple is active abd Blue inactive the goal is to activate phosphorylase. when we need to break down glycogen when our blood gulcose it low/exercising/ in bwtween meals.

Hormal siganl signal transduction cascase activng cAMP - Portoine Kinase A -> phosporylase Kinase -> phosphirylase a
