General description
Phosphorylase A is the active form of glycogen phosphorylase which converts glycogen and orthophosphate (Pi) to glucose 1-phoshate (G-1-P).
Application
Phosphorylase a from rabbit muscle has been used to mix with glycogen for the preparation of limit dextrin. It has also been used to probe the array in oligosaccharide microarray analysis of phosphorylase activity.
Phosphorylase from rabbit muscle has been used in a study to assess the molecular mechanisms of oleanolic acid. It has also been used in a study to describe the conversion of phosphorylase B to A, through a conversion enzyme in the presence of 32P-ATP.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Phosphorylase participates in glycogenolysis. Deficiency of phosphorylase leads to several glycogen storage diseases with hepatomegaly.
Dimeric phosphorylase b is converted to the more active tetramer, phosphorylase a, by the action of phosphorylase kinase.
Phosphorylase A can be inhibited by these compounds: Polychlorinated biphenyls, polychlorinated biphenylols and polybrominated biphenyls.
Physical form
Lyophilized powder containing β-glycerophosphate and EDTA
Other Notes
One unit will form 1.0 μmole of α-D-glucose 1-phosphate from glycogen and orthophosphate per min at pH 6.8 at 30 °C, measured in a system containing phosphoglucomutase, NADP, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. (One μmolar unit is equivalent to ~45 Cori units.)

Protein phosphorylation in amyloplasts and chloroplasts of Triticum aestivum (wheat) was investigated after the incubation of intact plastids with gamma-(32)P-ATP. Among the soluble phosphoproteins detected in plastids, three forms of starch branching enzyme (SBE) were phosphorylated in amyloplasts (SBEI, SBEIIa

Polychlorinated biphenyls, polychlorinated biphenylols and polybrominated biphenyls inhibited both rabbit muscle phosphorylase a and phosphorylase b (1,4-alpha-D-glucan:orthophosphate alpha-d-glucosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.1). The degree of inhibition was dependent upon the relative hydrophobicity of the compounds and steric hinderance. 2,4,5,2',4',5'-Hexabromobiphenyl and Firemaster BP-6
