Application

Phosphorylase b from rabbit muscle has been used:
  • in the calibration of Sepharose C1-6B columns while studying the molecular weight of methylamine dehydrogenase subunits
  • in ion mobility-mass spectrometry studies of phosphorylase B ions that have been generated with supercharging reagents, in the charge-reducing buffer
  • for the preparation of p32 labeled phosphorylase A using phosphorylase kinase and [32P]ATP
  • in phosphorylase phosphatase assay
  • in enzyme assay as a positive control to ensure the reaction system for the activity determination was adopted

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphorylase b is a non-active form and is present in resting muscles. Phosphorylase b kinase activity increases significantly when the Mg2+:ATP ratio exceeds 1. The breakdown of ATP during muscle contraction is thought to trigger in vivo conversion of phosphorylase b into a. Phosphorylase b is activated by inosine monophosphate. Glycogen phosphorylase (PG) enzyme plays a vital role in the first step of glycogenolysis. In the initial stage of glycogenolysis, glycogen phosphorylase(GP) breaks α-1,4- -glycosidic bonds, releasing the glucose-1-phosphate (G1P)molecule. When incubated with the proper concentrations of glucose-1-phosphate without the addition of primer, rabbit muscle phosphorylase B was found to be capable of forming protein-bound alpha-1,4 glucosyl chains.

General description

Research area: Cell Signaling

Glycogen phosphorylase (PG), a specialized complex allosteric enzyme has an evolutionarily conserved gene sequence. GP contains a family of three isozymes such as muscle GP (mGP), liver GP (lGP), and brain GP (bGP) in humans.

Other Notes

One unit will form 1.0 μmole of α-D-glucose 1-phosphate from glycogen and orthophosphate in the presence of 5′-AMP, per min at pH 6.8 at 30 °C measured in a system containing phosphoglucomutase, NADP, and glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase. (One μmolar unit is equivalent to approx. 45 Cori units.)

Packaging

  5. Has the amino acid sequence of phosphorylase from rabbit muscle been published?

    The sequence has been published. The amino acid composition is:Asp5l, Asn45, Thr35, Ser29, Glu64, Gln31, Pro36, Gly48, Ala63, Cys9, Val62, Met2l, Ile49, Leu79, Tyr36, Phe38, Trp12, Lys48, HiS22, and Arg63. Reference for the sequence and amino acid composition: K. Titani et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., USA, 74, 4762-4766 (1977) (see attached pdf).Product P1261 is phosphorylase a, which is the tetrameric form. Products P4649 and P6635 are phosphorylase b, the dimeric  form. The sequence information of the subunit would be the same for both forms.
