(a) In liver, glucagon stimulates glycogen breakdown via cyclic AMP. Although one might expect glucagon also to stimulate catabolism of the glucose formed, glucagon inhibits glycolysis and stimulates glu- coneogenesis in liver. (b) An individual with a glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency suffers from chronic hypoglycemia. (c) The action of phosphorylase kinase simultaneously activates glycogen breakdown and inhibits glycogen synthesis. (d) The presence in liver of glucose-6-phosphatase is essential to the function of the liver in synthesizing glucose for use by other tissues.
- asapAt normal to low blood glucose concentrations (1.e., roughly 110 mg/dl or less), the enzyme that is responsible for sequestering or trapping glucose within cells is which of the following enzymes? O hexokinase O glycogen synthase O glucose-6-phosphatase O glucokinaseWhen glycogen is degraded (catabolized), all of the following occur in both liver and muscle EXCEPT Active glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes the phosphorolysis of alpha-1,4- glucosidic bonds in glycogen. The conversion of glycogen phosphorylase a to glycogen phosphorylase b is a major control step. Glucose-1-phosphate is converted to glucose-6-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase. High concentrations of glucose and AMP act as important control factors. Debranching enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of alpha-1,6-glucosidic bonds in glycogen.
