[Regulation of the activity of rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase kinase by glycogen].
The effects of glycogen on the non-activated and activated forms of phosphorylase kinase were studied. It was found that in the presence of glycogen the activity of non-activated kinase at pH 6.8 and 8.2 and that of the activated (in the course of phosphorylation) form are enhanced. The degree of activation depends on glycogen concentration. At saturating concentrations, this enzyme activity increases 2-3-fold; the enzyme affinity for the protein substrate, phosphorylase b, also shows an increase. The polysaccharide has no effect on the activity of phosphorylase kinase stimulated by limited proteolysis. In the presence of glycogen, the rate of autocatalytic phosphorylation of the enzyme is increased. Glycogen stabilizes the enzyme activity upon dilution. The experimental results suggest that the polysaccharide directly affects the phosphorylase kinase molecule. The maximal binding was shown to occur at the enzyme/polysaccharide ratio of 1:10 (w/w) in the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+.
