Glycogenolysis
Breakdown of glycogen
Maria Gul
DEGRADATION OF GLYCOGEN
(GLYCOGENOLYSIS)
• The degradative pathway that mobilizes stored glycogen in liver and
skeletal muscle is not a reversal of the synthetic reactions. Instead, a
separate set of cytosolic enzymes is required. When glycogen is
degraded, the primary product is glucose 1-phosphate, obtained by
breaking α(1→4) glycosidic bonds. In addition, free glucose is
released from each α(1→6)-linked glucosyl residue.
A. Shortening of chains
Glycogen phosphorylase sequentially
cleaves the α(1→4) glycosidic bonds
between the glucosyl residues at the
nonreducing ends of the glycogen chains
by simple phosphorolysis
(producing glucose 1 phosphate)
until four glucosyl units remain on
each chain before a branch point
B. Removal of branches
• Branches are removed by the two enzymic activities of a single
bifunctional protein, the debranching enzyme.
• First, oligo-α(1→4)→α(1→4)-glucan transferase activity removes the
outer three of the four glucosyl residues attached at a branch.
• It next transfers them to the nonreducing end of another chain,
lengthening it accordingly. Thus, an α(1→4) bond is broken and an
α(1→4) bond is made, and the enzyme functions as a 4:4 transferase.
Next, the remaining single glucose residue attached in an α(1→6)
linkage is removed hydrolytically by amylo-α(1→6)-glucosidase
activity, releasing free glucose.
C. Conversion of glucose 1-phosphate to
glucose 6-phosphate
• Glucose 1-phosphate, produced by glycogen phosphorylase, is
converted in the cytosol to glucose 6-phosphate.
In the liver, glucose 6-phosphate is transported into the endoplasmic
reticulum (ER) by glucose 6-phosphate translocase. There it is
converted to glucose by glucose 6-phosphatase—the same enzyme
used in the last step of gluconeogenesis. The glucose then moves from
the ER to the cytosol.
D. Lysosomal degradation of glycogen
A small amount (1–3%) of glycogen is continuously degraded by the
lysosomal enzyme, α(1→4)-glucosidase (acid maltase). The purpose
of this pathway is unknown. However, a deficiency of this enzyme
causes accumulation of glycogen in vacuoles in the lysosomes,
resulting in the serious glycogen storage disease Type II: Pompe disease
Assignment
• Define glycogenesis and glycogenolysis?
• What is the importance of glycogenesis and glycogenolysis?
