GLYCOGEN METABOLISM &
DISORDERS
DR. NHETAN N. ACHARYA
Glycogen : storage form of carbohydrate.
Organs: Liver & muscle.
Organelle: Cytoplasm(present in granular form in cytosol).
Rate limiting enzyme: Glycogen Synthase.
Key Steps:
- Synthesis of UDP glucose
- Glycogen synthase reactions
- Branching.
Glycogen synthesized on a primer – Glycogenin (polypeptide).
GLYCOGENESI
S
GLYCOGENESI
S
• Synthesis of glycogen
from glucose.
1. Synthesis of UDP
Glucose
2. Glycogen Synthase
Reactions
3. Formation of
Branches in
Glycogen.
Glycogen Synthase: rate limiting enzyme.
In muscle & Liver Glycogen is stored is
stored
as 𝛃 particle.
One 𝛃 particle – 60,000 glycogen
residues.
In liver : arranged in rosette pattern.
GLYCOGENOLYSIS
It is the degradation of stored Glycogen in muscles and liver.
Organelle: Cytoplasm, Lysosomes
Rate limiting enzyme: Glycogen phosphorylase.
Coenzyme: Pyridoxal Phosphate
Steps:
- Action of Glycogen Phosphorylase
- Removal of Branches.
- Conversion of Glucose-1 PO4 to Glucose.
• Debranching enzymes :
∝ 1,4 1,4 Glucan Transferase
∝ 1,6 Glucosidase/ Amylo 1, 6 glucosidase.
REGULATION OF GLYCOGENOLYSIS
• Important in the maintenance of blood glucose levels.
• 2 Most important Enzymes involved ( active forms)
- Glycogen Synthase (De-phosphorylated state)
- Glycogen Phosphorylase (Phosphorylated state)
• Regulation of these enzymes is achieved through
- Allosteric Regulation
- Hormonal Regulation
- Influence of Calcium
ALLOSTERIC REGULATION
• Glycogen synthesis increases when available substrate
(glucose) and energy levels are HIGH. The same goes for
the opposite condition as well.

GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISORDERS
TYPE 1- VON GIERKE’S DISEASE
Defect: Glucose 6-phosphatase.
Organs Involved: Liver, kidney & intestine.
C/F: Hepatomegaly and increased renal size due to accumulation
Hyperlipidemia
Fasting hypoglycemia
Ketosis
Gouty Arthritis
Lactic Acidemia.
TYPE II- POMPE’S DISEASE
Defect: Lysosomal ∝ 1,4 glucosidase (acid maltase)
Organs involved: all
C/F: Cardiomegaly
muscle weakness
Hepatomegaly
Prognosis is usually poor as death happens generally due to cardiac failure.
• TYPE III- CORI’S DISEASE (FORBE’ DISEASE)
Defect: Amylo ∝ 1,6- glucosidase (Debranching enzyme)
Organs involved: liver, muscle, heart, leucocytes
C/F: similar symptoms but milder than VON GIERKE’S disease.
• TYPE IV- ANDERSON’S DISEASE
Defect: Glucosyl 4-6 transferase
Organs involved: most tissues
C/F: hepatic accumulation resulting in impaired liver function.
• TYPE V- McArdle’s DISEASE
Defect: Muscle Glycogen Phosphorylase.
Organs involved: Skeletal Muscles.
C/F: Unable to perform strenuous exercises.
Suffer from muscle cramps and easy fatiguability.
blood lactate and pyruvate level do not increase after exercise.
• TYPE VI- HER’S DISEASE
Defect: Liver glycogen phosphorylase
Organ involved: Liver
C/F: Hepatomegaly
Hypoglycemia & Ketosis seen.
Moderate to good prognosis reported.
Type VIII, IX, X and XI have been identified with similar enzyme defect
TYPE VII- TARUI’S DISEASE
Defect: Phosphofructokinase
Organ involved: Skeletal Muscle; erythrocytes
C/F: Muscle cramps elicited in exercise
Blood lactate levels NOT elevated
Hemolysis can occur.
THANK YOU
