One enzyme that regulates synthesis of this molecule is phosphorylated on its Ser-9 or Ser-21 residues by both Akt and protein kinase A.
One enzyme that regulates synthesis of this molecule is phosphorylated on its Ser-9 or Ser-21 residues by both Akt and protein kinase A. That enzyme is inhibited by p90Rsk and also phosphorylates beta-Catenin in the Wnt pathway. Synthesis of this molecule begins with the activity of phosphoglucomutase, which is followed up by the addition of uridine triphosphate. Pompe's disease occurs when lysosome can't break this molecule down and is one of this molecule's namesake "storage diseases" along with Von Gierke's disease. This molecule has a branching enzyme that generates alpha-1,6-glycosidic linkages. Pyridoxal phosphate is a necessary cofactor for this enzyme's namesake phosphorylase, which increases blood sugar levels. Its plant counterpart is amylopectin. For 10 points, name this storage molecule whose formation is promoted by insulin, found primarily in the liver and muscles.
