glycogen | significantly stimulates the enzyme PhK. GPb molecules located on the glycogen surface might serve as good connecting molecules between PhK and glycogen and, consequently, promote indirect binding of PhK to the glycogen surface. Under conditions of high ionic strength and high ATP concentration in the body, direct binding of PhK to glycogen is reported to be very weak. The ternary PhK-GPbn-glycogen complex produces active GPa very efficiently compared with PhK, either alone or in the binary complex, i.e. the PhK-GPb complex. The effect is inhibited by gamma-cyclodextrin | Oryctolagus cuniculus |

metabolism | the enzyme plays a key role in the cascade system for regulating glycogen metabolism | Oryctolagus cuniculus |
physiological function | glycogen phosphorylase, EC 2.4.1.1, exists in two interconvertible forms, GPa (phosphorylated form, high activity) and GPb (nonphosphorylated form, low activity). Phosphorylase kinase catalyses the phosphorylation of GPb and plays a key role in the cascade system for regulating glycogen metabolism | Oryctolagus cuniculus |
