In glycogen metabolism, a metabolically active impoant enzyme found in liver is conveed from it's inactive dephosphorylated state to it's active phosphorylated state. Which of the following is true about this enzyme:
The enzyme in concern in this question is Glycogen Phosphorylase: Glycogen Phosphorylase RLE of glycogenolysis Active in phosphorylated state. Phosphorylation always activates this enzyme. (option A is wrong) Catecholamines stimulate this enzyme through cAMP, not directly. (option B is wrong) Glycogenolysis is occurring in fasting state, not in fed state. CAMP activates this enzyme but Calcium & calmodulin directly activates this enzyme without phosphorylation and without cAMP. (option D is wrong as this enzyme is not always activated by cAMP).
Phosphorylation sometimes activates the enzyme
Catecholamines directly stimulate it
More commonly seen in fasting state than in fed state
Always activated by cAMP dependent protein kinase
Glycogen
