FAMILY
  • glycogen phosphorylase family
  • CATEGORY enzyme
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
    basic FUNCTION
  • catalyzing and regulating the breakdown of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism carbohydrate
    signaling
    a component
  • two dimers associate into a tetramer to form the enzymatically active phosphorylase A
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule cofactor,
  • pyridoxal phosphate
  • protein
  • ACTN3 potentially regulates PYGM activity by altering its level of phosphorylation
  • to activate RAC1 and consequently PYGM, PRKCQ phosphorylates ARHGEF6 in T cells
  • cell & other
