| additional information | analysis of the substrate specificities of 4-alpha-glucanotransferase and amylo-alpha-1,6-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.33) using fluorogenic biantennary dextrins such as G-GG-G-(G-G-G-G<->)G-G-GPA (F4/4/2, where GPA = 1-deoxy-1-[(2-pyridyl)amino]-D-glucitol), G-(G-G-G-G<->)G-G-GPA (F1/4/2), and G-G-G-G-G-G-G-(G<->)G-G-GPA (F7/1/2). Contrary to the prevailing hypothesis, the main branch of F4/4/2 is an important donor substrate component of 4-alpha-glucanotransferase and does not serve as an acceptor substrate. But when G-G-G-G-G-GPA is added to the mixture, it successfully accepts a maltotriosyl (G3-) residue from F4/4/2. The debranching activity of GDE towards phosphorylase-limit glycogen substantially increases when methyl alpha-maltooligosides with lengths equal to or greater than that of methyl alpha-maltopentaoside (G5-OCH3) are added to the enzyme reaction mixture. GP-limit dextrin is a bifunctional substrate possessing both donor and acceptor moieties for GDE 4-alpha-glucanotransferase. Maltohexaose is both acceptor and activator of 4-alpha-glucanotransferase.

| metabolism | a distinct macroscopic debranching pathway is proposed: via 4-alpha-glucanotransferase, the G3-residue of the donor branch is transferred to a long (n >/= 5) linear Gn-residue linked to a different branching G residue | Sus scrofa |
| physiological function | glycogen debranching enzyme (GDE) is bifunctional in that it exhibits both 4-alpha-glucanotransferase (EC 2.4.1.25) and amylo-alpha-1,6-glucosidase activity at two distinct catalytic sites. GDE converts the phosphorylase-limit biantennary branch into a linear maltooligosyl residue, which is then subjected to phosphorylase, and glycogen degradation continues | Sus scrofa |
