(14) Identify whether the following characteristics of allosteric regulation of glycogen phosphorylase apply to the muscle or liver. (a) AMP binding induces R state (b) a form is the default state (c) activation liberates glucose for export (d) activation generates glucose for the cell (e) glucose binding induces the T state (f) b form is the default state

Identify the true statements regarding liver glycogen phosphorylase a. (Protein phosphatase 1 is abbreviated PP1) (A) Phosphorylase a prevents early glycogen synthase activation. (B) When PP1 is bound to phosphorylase a, both PP1 and phosphorylase a are active. (C) Liver phosphorylase a concentration decreases when glucose enters the blood. (D) Liver phosphorylase a is regulated by AMP, adenosine monophosphate. (E) The binding of glucose to liver phosphorylase a shifts the equilibrium from the active form to the inactive form.

Which of the following groups is CORRECT? Each group contains an enzyme, a regulator, and the conformational state of the enzyme in the presence of the regulator. a) liver phosphofructokinase; AMP; T-state b) All of the answers are correct. c) muscle hexokinase; glucose-6-phosphate; T state d) muscle pyruvate kinase; ATP; T state e) muscle pyruvate kinase; fructose 1,6-bisphosphate; T state

Regulation of Glycogen Phosphorylase In muscle tissue, the rate of conversion of glycogen to glucose 6 -phosphate is determined by the ratio of phosphorylase $a$ (active) to phosphorylase $b$ (less active). Determine what happens to the rate of glycogen breakdown if a muscle preparation containing glycogen phosphorylase is treated with (a) phosphorylase kinase and ATP; (b) PP1; (c) epinephrine.
