Abstract

2‐Deoxyglucose and 5‐thioglucose, in the same fashion as glucose, cause the inactivation of the rat hepatocyte glycogen phosphorylase and the activation of glycogen synthase. However, 6‐deoxyglucose and 1,5‐anhydroglucitol inactivate phosphorylase without increasing the activation state of glycogen synthase. With 3‐O‐methylglucose no changes in the activity or these enzymes occurred. These results prove that while glucose is the molecule that triggers the inactivation of phosphorylase, glucose 6‐phosphate is the signal for glucose synthase activation and that a metabolite control of the activation state of glycogen synthase is operative in hepatocytes.
