α-1,6-glycosidic bond
α-1,4-glycosidic bond
pre-requisite:
slower to mobilize
requires oxygen for energy production
Most part of the fatty acids cannot be converted to glucose and contribute to
regulation of blood sugar levels (but glycerol and propionyl-CoA are gluconeogenesis
substrates!)

Insulin is an anabolic hormone: fatty acid synthesis, glycogen snthesis, and protein synthesis
GLUT 4 glucose transporter (muscle, adipose tissue) is insulin dependent, insulin increases
transporter number on cell surface.
Insulin enhances glycolysis in the liver by enhancing glucokinase, PFK-I and pyruvate kinase
expression (in diabetes decreased glycolysis).
Insulin blocks gluconeogenesis by inhibiting PEPCK and G-6-Pase transcription (in diabetes
enhanced gluconeogenesis).
Insulin inhibits glycogenolysis by activating PP-1 and cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE). The PP-1
directly dephosphorylates glycogen phosphorylase a, reforming the inactive glycogen
phosphorylase b. The phosphodiesterase converts cAMP to AMP. This activity removes the
second messenger (generated by glucagon and epinephrine) and inhibits PKA. In this manner,
PKA can no longer cause the phosphorylation cascade that ends with formation of (active)
glycogen phosphorylase a.
Enhances glycogen synthesis. Glycogen synthase is active in dephosphorylated state, insulin
activates glycogen synthase via PP1. . In diabetic patients the rate of glycogen synthesis
decreases.
