GLYCOGENOLYSIS Flashcards
1
Q
catalyzes the phosphorolytic cleavage of 1 -> 4 linkages of glycogen to yield G1P.
A
Glycogen phosphorylase (coenzyme: Pyridoxal Phosphate)
2
Q
releases the glucose subunits forming a separated strand of G1P.
A
debranching enzyme
3
Q
G6P can be formed from G1P by the reaction of
A
PHOSPHOGLUCOMUTASE
4
Q
In the liver, what catalyzes hydrolysis of G6P that releases Glucose that is exported to the bloodstream which increases Blood Glucose levels.
A
Glucose-6-Phosphatase
