Why is glycogen phosphorylase alone not sufficient in in degrading glycogen?

Glycogen phosphorylase can not cleave the alpha-1,6-glycosidic bonds at glycogen branch points


What is the last step in the sequence of events when cyclic AMP acts as a second messenger?

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...........

What is the difference between phosphorylase and phosphatase?

Phosphorylase adds the Phosphate group to substrate, but phosphatase takes off the Phosphate group from the substrate. the function of phosphorylase can be considered as same as kinase. they are all playing key roles in the cellular signalling transduction via control the phosphorylation, the phosphatase can be the negative or positive regulator for different pathways. e.g. PTP1B dephosphorylates the JAK2 to suppress leptin in the hypothalamus that contribute to weight gain.


Is the enzyme that catalyzes glycogenolysis always present in active form?

I think you're referring to glycogen phosphorylase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction where glycogen is turned into a glucose-molecule, therefore making it available for transformation to energy. Glycogen phosphorylase comes in two forms, A and B. Usually, the A form is considered the active form, whilst B is the inactive form. That is a modified truth, since both of these forms can exist in a T (tense) inactive state and R (relaxed) active state, depending on the presence of ADP (residue after phosphorylation of ATP). But usually, A is in its R state and B is in its T state. So for the sake of argument, we say A is active and B is inactive. So the short answer would be 'No'. For example, hormones such as epinephrine, insulin, and glucagon regulate glycogen phosphorylase. Essentially, epinephrine and glucagon promotes the A form (by activating phosphorylase kinase, an enzyme that transforms A into B), and insulin promotes the B form (by inhibiting the phosphorylase kinase).


What are 5 specific enzymes?

Well this is a complicated question, one easy answer would be the salivary amylase, acetyl co enzyme A, B, C, D etc. 1) Each enzyme is specific : here are five out of 5,000 answers - - pyruvate decarboxylase - isocitrate lyase - acetyl-CoA transferase - phosphorylase kinase - tryptophan 2-3-dioxygenase 2) note that all enzyme suffixes are -ase. 3) phosphorylase kinase has two -ases - a nested loop - is an ON switch - phosphorylase phosphatase - also a nested loop - is an OFF switch.
