Abstract
Although the glycogen content of mouse tail skin was decreased during starvation and was restored on re-feeding, the proportion of glycogen synthase in the I form remained constant throughout at .apprx. 10% of the total. During the phase of net glycogen synthesis 1.5 h after access to food was restored, the concentration of UDP-glucose was markedly increased and the proportion of phosphorylase in the a form was significantly decreased.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
