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 …

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 …

A study of the regulation of glycogen metabolism in Dictyostelium discoideum
This work discusses the regulation of glycogen metabolism in Dictyostelium discoideum during its developmental cycle. Specifically, the possible cAMP dependent regulation of glycogen phosphorylase and glycogen synthase was examined. In other systems, cAMP can regulate at the level of the gene …

The role of glycogen Metabolism in the Adaptation to environmental Changes of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
Glycogen is the primary polysaccharide in cyanobacteria, serving as a critical carbon and energy reservoir to support cellular energy homeostasis. Its metabolism is conserved, requiring only a few steps from glucose-6P to incorporate glucose molecules into glycogen chains. This study investigates …

Demonstration of Interactions Among Dif Proteins and the Identification of Kapb as a Regulator of Exopolysaccharide in Myxococcus Xanthus
… Pkn4-Pfk pathway. This pathway is implicated in glycogen metabolism in M. xanthus by a previous report. In this study, kapB as well as pfkn deletion mutants were found to overproduce EPS. It was also found that the Dif pathway is involved in glycogen metabolism because the glycogen level is …

The Impact of Candida albicans Glycogen on Fitness, Virulence and Host Response
… rapid and coordinated changes in Candida metabolism and physiology to cope with host immune surveillance and to counteract host-imposed constraints such as glucose limitation. Although largely unexplored in C. albicans, the glycogen metabolism pathway is a vital carbon assimilation and …

Stimulus-Section Coupling in Endocrine Cell Models
… found between L and beta cells. Accumulation of glycogen in the beta cell has been associated with T2D. In study V, I investigated the potential role of glycogen metabolism in beta cells and its potential role in regulation of insulin secretion. This study revealed glycogen metabolism to be …

Hypoglycemia-induced changes in glucose metabolism in the hypothalamus
… (Chapter 4) to identify changes in glucose metabolism in the VMH. We did not see significant changes in glucose metabolite concentrations, but we observed altered glycogen metabolism through changes in expression of genes involved in glycogen synthesis and mobilization. Impact of altered …

Functional characterisation of driver events in ovarian clear cell carcinoma
… epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) characterised by glycogen accumulation. Frequently arising within endometriotic cysts, it can be conceived as an ectopic endometrial cancer. Putative driver genomic events include HNF1B overexpression and inactivating ARID1A mutations. Importantly, these can also be …

The Effects of Temperatures on System Performance and Bacterial Community Structure in a Biological Phosphorus Removal System
… advantage over bacteria dependent upon glycogen metabolism. The activated sludge acclimated to 20°C had relatively high polyhydroxyvalerate (PHV) and glycogen contents relative to sludge acclimated to 5°C. It was initially hypothized that there is a significant competition between PAO …

Double volumetric navigators for real-time simultaneous shim and motion measurement and correction in Glycogen Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (GlycoCEST) MRI
Glycogen is the primary glucose storage mechanism in in living systems and plays a central role in systemic glucose homeostasis. The study of muscle glycogen concentrations in vivo still largely relies on tissue sampling methods via needle biopsy. However, muscle biopsies are invasive and limit the …

Tissue enzyme changes in air-exposed American eels.
… included those key in glycolysis (PFK, PK, LDH), glycogen metabolism (GPase and GSase) and gluconeogenesis (GDH, AspAT, AlaAT, and PEPCK). In addition, kinetic analysis was undertaken for PFK and PK in harvested posterior kidney. Blood collected at the time of harvest was analyzed for glucose, …

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 …

Purification of protein phosphatases and 14-3-3-binding proteins and their regulation by the cAMP–PKA pathway
… in various cellular processes including glycogen metabolism, cell cycle control, RNA splicing, DNA synthesis, muscle contraction and mitosis. Protein kinases and phosphatases regulate the phosphorylation status of proteins in response to intra and extracellular stimuli such as hormones …

Post-exercise ketosis in non-diabetic subjects
… would utilize similar amounts of muscle glycogen during exercise, and therefore develop similar degrees of ketosis after exercise, if the glycogen content of the muscles was in fact the factor which determined post-exercise ketosis. Ten non-athletic subjects, six long-distance runners, …
