Glycogen metabolism in Lafora disease
Glycogen, a branched polymer of glucose, serves as an osmotically neutral means of storing glucose. Covalent phosphate is a trace component of mammalian glycogen and has been a point of interest with respect to Lafora disease, a fatal form of juvenile myoclonus epilepsy. Mutations in either the …

Mechanistic studies of rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase
Glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of glycogen. The enzyme contains a molecule of pyridoxal phosphate (PLP), of which the phosphate moiety is essential for catalysis. To investigate the role of the cofactor phosphate moiety two phosphonate analogues of PLP, …

Phosphorylation of polyglycans, especially glycogen and starch
… vital to plants and animals. The water-soluble glycogen in animal cells and the amylopectin which is the major component of water-insoluble starch granules residing in plant plastids are chemically similar as they consist of α-1,6 branched α-1,4 glucan chains. Synthesis and degradation of …

Structure and regulation of yeast glycogen synthase
Glycogen is a major energy reserve in most eukaryotes and its rate of synthesis is controlled by glycogen synthase. The activity of eukaryotic glycogen synthase is regulated by the allosteric activator glucose-6-phosphate, which can overcome the inhibitory effects of phosphorylation. The effects of …

Glycogen metabolism in Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032
… groups. Linked to glycolysis is the synthesis of glycogen, previously considered a storage molecule of excess glucose. No information concerning the role of glycogen or its metabolism in C. glutamicum was known, and the aim of this work was to elucidate glycogen metabolism in this industrially …

The effects of fatigue on glycogen, glycogen phosphorylase, and calcium uptake associated with the sarcoplasmic reticulum of rat skeletal muscle
… relaxation. It has been proposed that both glycogen and glycolytic enzymes are associated with the SR membrane (SR-glycogenolytic complex). Interestingly, glycogen phosphorylase, an enzyme involved in glycogen breakdown, seems to be associated with the SR-glycogenolytic complex through its …

Regulation of glycogen phosphorylase genes in Dictyostelium discoideum
… crucial developmental event in Dictyostelium is glycogen degradation. The degradation of glycogen provides glucose monomers that are used to synthesize structural components necessary for cellular differentiation. Glycogen degradation is catalyzed by glycogen phosphorylase, and two …

EFFECT OF LOWER LIMB COMPRESSION (NORMATEC) ON GLYCOGEN RESYNTHESIS
… of pneumatic compression pants on post-exercise glycogen resynthesis. Methods: Active male subjects (n=10) completed two trials consisting of a 90-minute glycogen depleting ride, followed by 4 hours of recovery with either a pneumatic compression device (PCD) or passive recovery (PR) in a random …

Effect of post-exercise environmental temperature on glycogen resynthesis
… hot (H) and room temperature (RT) environment on glycogen resynthesis during recovery from exercise. Recreationally active males (n = 9) completed two trials, each with 60-min of cycling exercise at 60% of maximum watts in a temperature-controlled chamber (32.6°C), followed by 4 hours of recovery …

Cloning and characterization of glycogen synthase from Dictyostelium discoideum
In Dictyostelium, glycogen metabolism plays a major role in development. Undifferentiated cells contain stores of glycogen that are broken down and converted to structural components in differentiated cells. The enzyme that synthesizes this developmentally important pool of glycogen is glycogen …

The Effect of Glycogen Depletion on Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Function
The role of glycogen in endurance performance has been accepted in theory. It has been shown that higher resting muscle glycogen levels prolong endurance performance. On the other hand, low glycogen levels have been associated with fatigue. Ultimately, a person's muscle glycogen level dictates the …

Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 Is Required For Optimal Akt Activation
… and amplifications in a myriad of malignancies. Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) was first discovered as the kinase responsible for phosphorylating and inhibiting the activity of glycogen synthase, ultimately antagonizing the storage of glucose as glycogen. Its activity counteracts the effects …

Molecular mechanism of glycogen phosphorylase gene regulation during Dictyostelium development
