Why high levels of ATP would decrease glycogenolysis if the glycogen degradation requires ATP but in Gluconeogenesis high levels of ATP would increase the reaction?
High level of ATP is a surrogate marker for high level of glucose in blood,because glucose in blood is high there is no need for glycogenolysis (which makes glusoce from glycogen),so it inhibits glycogenolysis.Also excess of glusoce has to be stored in the form of glycogen,so high levels of ATP induce it .

Be able to explain how we get 32 ATP when glycogen goes through glycogenolysis, the Krebs Cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain. (In your answer be sure to show how the ATP is calculated mathematically)
What would be the net result of simultaneous degradation and synthesis of glycogen? (Hint: write a summary reaction for simultaneous activity of UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase, glycogen synthase, and glycogen phosphorylase). Why should this situation be avoided?
If the cell had high [ATP] and low [AMP], what would you expect to happen to the following processes (i.e. process vs. not proceed)? What causes them to process/not proceed and be sure to address any enzymes involved. Glycolysis Gluconeogenesis Glycogen breakdown Glycogen synthesis
Arrange in proper order the events of the signal-transduction cascade for glycogen degradation in muscle. Muscle contraction begins. Phosphorolysis of glycogen yields glucose l-phosphate. Answer Bank Phosphorylase kinase is phosphorylated on its and a subunits. Intracellular CAMP levels increase, which activates protein kinase A. Epinephrine is released and binds to muscle ß-adrenergic receptors. The stimulatory G, protein dissociates and activates adenylate cyclase. Phosphorylase kinase is partly activated by binding Ca2+ Glycogen phosphorylase b is converted to glycogen phosphorylase a.
30. Which of the following is associated with insulin effect upon blood glucose levels? A. Increase in glycogen breakdown B. Decrease in glycogen synthesis C. Increase in gluconeogenesis D. Decrease in fatty acid mobilization
The high energy substrate used in the glycogen synthase reaction to add glucose to a glycogen particle is A. acetyl CoA B. ATP C. UDP_glucose D. sucrose
A liver cell has high NADH, high acetyl-CoAs, and high levels of pyruvate high levels of ATP, and low levels of AMP. Now suppose this liver cell needed to generate NADPH. Propose a series of pathways that the liver could accomplish this starting with pyruvate. Could the liver satisfy its needs with glycogen? Explain. 4.
1). All of the following is associated with glucagon effect upon blood glucose levels EXCEPT __________. A. Increase in Gluconeogenesis B. Increase in Glycogen breakdown C. Decrease in Glycogen synthesis D. Increase in Glucose uptake
Select the results that occur from having few or no a-1,6 linkages in glycogen. Maintaining proper blood sugar levels would be more difficult. Glycogen solubility would increase. Glycogen degradation would be faster. Glycogen synthesis would slow down.
Classify each statement as a description of glycolysis, glycogenesis, glycogenolysis, or gluconeogenesis. Glycolysis Glycogenesis Glycogenolysis Gluconeogenesis Glucose 6-phosphate is the initial reactant. Glycogen is the initial reactant. Pyruvate is the final product. Pyruvate is the initial reactant Glucose 6-phosphate is produced in the first step. Glucose 1-phosphate is produced in the first step through isomerization. This occurs when brain and muscle cells need i mmediate energy. NADH is consumed. L about us careers privacy policy terms of use contact us...
