Study Notes
Glycogen Synthesis
- Glycogen synthase, responsible for glycogen synthesis, is activated by Glucose-6-Phosphate (G6P).
- Glycogen synthase is deactivated by phosphorylation via kinases.
- Kinases are activated by cAMP, which is mediated by Protein Kinase A (PKA).
- Calcium ions (Ca²⁺) also activate kinases through Calmodulin-dependent Kinase.
- Insulin deactivates kinases through Protein Phosphatase-1 (PP1).
Glycogen Breakdown (Glycogenolysis)
- Glycogen phosphorylase, which breaks down glycogen, is activated by AMP and phosphorylation via Phosphorylase Kinase.
- Glycogen phosphorylase is deactivated by ATP, Glucose-6-Phosphate (G6P), and Insulin (via Protein Phosphatase-1, PP1).
- Phosphorylase Kinase is activated by cAMP, mediated by Protein Kinase A (PKA).
- Calcium ions (Ca²⁺) activate Phosphorylase Kinase via Calmodulin.
- Protein Phosphatase-1 (PP1) deactivates Phosphorylase Kinase.
Hormonal Regulation
- Insulin activates Protein Phosphatase-1 (PP1), promoting glycogen synthesis and inhibiting glycogen breakdown.
- Glucagon and epinephrine activate cAMP production, which subsequently activates Protein Kinase A (PKA).
- The effect of glucagon and epinephrine is to inhibit glycogen synthesis and promote glycogen breakdown.
Key Players
- cAMP is a secondary messenger that activates Protein Kinase A (PKA).
- Protein Phosphatase-1 (PP1) dephosphorylates and deactivates Glycogen Synthase and Phosphorylase Kinase; it is activated by insulin.
- Ca²⁺ can activate Phosphorylase Kinase, which is especially important in muscle contraction.
