- Phosphorilation = Dis-activation:
- Insulin: dIphosphorilate (activator)
- Glucagon: phosphorilate (dis-activator)
- Glycogen storage/release and phosphorilation (dis-activation):
- Glycogen synthase (synthesis = storage)
- Activated (di-phosphorilated) = fed stage
- Dis-activated (phosphorilated) fast stage
- Glycogen phosphorilase (glycogen degradator) in muscle
- Activated (di-phosphorilated) = fast stage
- Dis-activated (phosphorilated) = fed stage
- Insulin / Glucagon regulators (feedback):
- cAMP and PKA (protein kinase A)
- cAMP activates PKA in fast state
