cleavage....
Dolomite typically exhibits three cleavage planes that intersect at approximately 90 degrees, resulting in rhombohedral cleavage.
Galena has a distinct cleavage, typically showing cubic cleavage planes.
Muscovite has perfect basal cleavage, meaning it cleaves easily along one plane into thin sheets. This cleavage is due to the arrangement of the mineral's atoms in its crystal lattice.
The actress wore a low-cut dress that showed off her cleavage.
Activation, conversion from glycogen phosphorylase B to glycogen phosphorylase A
AMP is an inhibitor of glycogen phosphorylase.
Glycogen phosphorylase can not cleave the alpha-1,6-glycosidic bonds at glycogen branch points
The main enzyme for breaking down glycogen is glycogen phosphorylase. This enzyme catalyzes the phosphorylytic cleavage of glucose residues from the glycogen polymer, releasing glucose-1-phosphate for energy production.
Yes, glycogen has more accessible cleavage sites than amylose because it is a highly branched polymer with multiple alpha-1,6-glycosidic bonds in addition to alpha-1,4-glycosidic bonds. This branching structure allows for more points of cleavage by enzymes like glycogen phosphorylase compared to the linear structure of amylose.
glycogen phosphorylase, glycogen debranching enzyme, phosphoglutomutase
the last step is ofcourse glycogen breakdown.......before that inactive glycogen phosphorylase-b is activated and phosphorylated to glycogen phosphorylase-a by the help of activated phosphorylase kinase........ ......phosphorylase kinase was activated by activated protien kinase..and activated protien kinase was activated by cyclic amp...........
The substrate of phosphorylase is glycogen. Phosphorylase is an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-1-phosphate, which can then be used by cells for energy production.
Actually, three are the enzymes that intervene during glycogen breakdown (glycogenolysis).First, Glycogen phosphorylase (or simply phosphorylase) that catalyzes glycogen phosphorolysis (bond cleavage by the substitution of a phosphate group) to yield glucose-1-phosphate (G1P) releasing only one glucose residue that is at least five residues from a ramification point.The second enzyme is the Glycogen debranching enzymethat removes glycogen's branches, thereby permiting the glycogen phosphorylase reaction (see above) to go to completion. This enzymes also hydrolyzes alpha(1-6)-linked glucosyl units to yield glucose.Finally, Phosphoglucomutase that converts G1P to G6P which is also formed in the first step of glycolysis through the action of either hexokinase or glucokinase.
No. Insulin converts glucose into glycogen for storage in the body. Glucagon converts glycogen into glucose. (it's the various cells in the body that do the conversion in either case, insulin and glucagon are hormones that induce the shift in the metabolism.)
Glycogen is broken down through a process known as glycogenolysis, which involves the breakdown of glycogen into glucose molecules. This process is mainly controlled by enzymes such as glycogen phosphorylase and glucose-6-phosphatase. The resulting glucose is then available for energy production or storage in the body.
The process of "glycogenolysis" is the splitting of glycogen in the liver, which in turn produces glucose. Glucagon can be administered in emergency diabetic situations where sugar can't be taken orally.
