Q

What is glycogen? What does it do in body?

A

Glycoge in a glucose storage molecule for most cell types but most important in:

Heart and skeletal muscle - serves as a buffer for glucose 6 phosphate for cellular use (energy)

In liver it serves as a glucose buffer for blood

Q

What is the process for creating glycogen?

What is the enzyme for creating the long main chains?

A

Insulin signaling activates protein phosphatase-1, which dephosphorylates glycogen synthase, activating the enzyme.

In the absence of insulin, glycogen synthase kinase-3 is active, which phosphorylates and inactivates glycogen synthase.

This continues for 11 (or so) units of glucose

Elongation happens towards 4 carbon so always in 1 to 4 direction

Glycogen synthase adds UDP glucose to the linear chain

Q

What is the branching enzyme for glycogen production?

A

glycosyl 4-6 transferase

Branching enzyme (glycosyl 46 transferase) then cleaves a piece of the chain off, and attaches it to the chain in a 1:6 glycosidic linkage. Both branches then can be extended with 1:4 bonds.

What is GSD 0
Defect in glycogen synthase... pts will ahve no glycogen production Mutation in Glycogen Synthase
26
What is GSD IV, Anderson disease?
Mutation in 4:6 transferase The branched chains wnt get moved down to main linear chain..
27
What does GSD 0 cause?
Glycogen synthase deficiency ## Footnote Rare (?) autosomal recessive Normal glucose tolerance; variable clinical presentation of exercise intolerance, cardiac and muscle hypertrophy.
28
What is GSD IV?
Deficiency of branching enzyme, 4:6-transferase. ## Footnote Failure to thrive, hepatomegaly, liver failure. Fatal.
29
So when have abundant carbs/glucose what happens?
Glycogen production
30
Glycogen is a what?
puffball of glucose... It is a branched polymer not linear
31
Why is it an advantage of glycogen to be branched? not linear?
Key: because it is branched.. multiple enzymes can chop it down much faster and at the same time so glucose can be made form glycogen VERY fast.. much faster than if it were a long chain. Multiple binding points for enzymes It is a short term buffer for glucose concentration in blood... Branching increases solubility (more exposed OH groups)
32
If we dont have carb in blood? but have glycogen stores within cell what happens:
Glycogen degradation (glycogenolysis)
33
What product from glycogenolysis?
G1P Glucose 1 phosphate
34
What are three enzymes in glycogenolysis?
**Glycogen phosphorylase** Makes the 1-4 cuts... But, when it gets to a branchpoint it is sterrically hindered and cant act.. So **4:4 transferase** moves it to end of chain Then **alpha 1,6 glucosidase** removes the single G1P Then **glycogen phosphorylase** breaks of the remaining glucose from chain..
35
What enzyme can cut 1-4 bond and is not sterically hindered?
4-4 transferase
36
What does alpha 1,6 glucosidase do?
Cuts one molecule of glucose from glycogen core
37
Defect in glycogen degredation or one of key enzymes?
Can store glycogen but it wont be able to degredate it so you would see an increase in glycogen in tissues...
38
What is 4:4 transferase?
Moves three glucoses to end of main glycogen chain when glycogen phosphorylase becomes sterically hindered..
39
What is glygcogen phosphorylase?
Enzyme to cleaves glucose from glycogen chains and adds inorganic phosphate to make G1P
40
What is alpha 1,6 glucosidase?
Enzyme that hydrolyzes the remaining glucose after 4:4 transferase removes the previous 3..
41
Probs resulting form glycogen storage degredation disiease
Fasting hypoglycymia Liver failure
42
GSD V (Mcardles disease)
Caused by mutation in muscle glycogen phosphorylase
43
GSD VI (Hers Disease)
Mutation in liver glycogen phosphorylase
44
GSD III disease
Deficiency in 1,6 glucosidase activity High levels of single glucoses on the glycogen core..
45
How is glycogen metabolism regulated? Which is faster? A or B?
There are two forms of glycogen phosphorylase: A and B ## Footnote Shown is a Lineweaver-Burke plot (a.k.a. double reciprocal plot) of initial reaction velocities with different concentrations of substrate (glycogen) for phosphorylase A and phosphorylase B. B form has higher 1/Vmax, therefore lower Vmax. B form has higher (or less negative) 1/km, therefore Km is higher.
46
FED vs FAST state and glycogen metabolism
Glycogen metabolism is controlled by phosphorylation of glycogen phosphorylase and glycogen synthase. In the fed state, phosphorylase is inactive and glycogen synthase is active. Both are unphosphorylated. In the fasted state, phosphorylase is active and glycogen synthase is inactive. Both are phosphorylated.
47

61
Difference in kinases and phosphatases in regards to Pi and ATP..
....
62
Cytoplasmic concentration of Ca?

kj
64
Whaere is Glucose 6 phosphatase found? Take Phos off of G6P to put glucose in blood... ONLY IN LIVER. why is it critical?
(only in liver\_not skel musc)
65
What does wave of Ca do in muscle
Stimulates muscle contraction.. Then Ca goes to phosphorylate glycogen phosphorylase kinase.. This activateds glycogen phosphorylase KNow fasted vs fed state of this
66

79
Clinical case I 8 year old south indian boy... 8 y/o male, died unexplained during excercise mke card for consaguinous (first cousin parents) Autopsy showed? Ragged red fibers. Tons of mitochondria and are swollen and nunnomral.. GLycogen depleted.. Sink fibrobalsts.. cultured in vitro in me dia containing. Plotted concentration of lactate vs time.
So muscles are trying to have aerobic production of energy but doesnt have glucose.. so it is producein energy form fatty acids and ketone bodies... Mitochondria are porliferating to try to increase energy production Plot.. lactate in control is from glucose stored as glycogten that goes throu anaerobic glycolosis. IN pt lactate is not being produces.. so not getting glucose from glycogen... glycogen synthase (GYS1) western blot showd no blot for pateint but yes for control.. So pt not making GYS1 protein.. So the mutation prefents GYS1 from being produced. Then add GAPDH and it ensures same abount of protein in each sample..
80
Summary of pathophysiology of excercise aindused suden cardiac arrest due to inherit4ed deficiency of muscle glycogen synthase
So deficiency in synthase. not able to store glucose as glycogen.. then in fasted state you have no glucose/energy. With no enrgy the muscle tissue compensated and produced many mitochondrial and hypertorphied. breaking up muscle fibers that eventually led to cardiac arrest... so this boy was 8.. he compenstaed for many years, creating damage all the way along. If a skin punch would have been done at birth... pt most likely could have been treated (by limited excercise). Is this plausable for every pt tho.. prob not.
81
Next case.. Patient E.. PAS-pos.. Periotic acid shift stain - identifies sugars So if take glycogen and incubate with amylase you get G6P.. So pictures show bad disfigureation of muscle Phosphorylase kinase activity undetectable in heart look at quiz slides online..
82
What is different in liver and muscle glycogen phosphorylase?
liver - glucose muscle - Glucose 6 phosphate
