Chapter 15, Problem 6P

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The physiological function of glycogen phosphorylase in skeletal muscle and in liver tissue.

Introduction:

Glucose is a monosaccharide that acts a fuel or energy source for the body. It enters a cell and waste product such as carbon dioxide leaves the cell. It is maintained at the concentration of 5mM in the blood.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The reason that the Vmax of the muscle enzyme need to be greater than that of the liver enzyme.

Introduction:

Glucose is a monosaccharide which is absorbed from the digestive tract. It is the energy source for the body. The concentration of glucose present in the blood of humans is maintained at 5mM. Km also known as concentration of substrate permits the catalyst to attain half Vmax, while Vmax is the maximum rate of reaction.
