Abstract:
An enzymic activity, obtained from Neurospora crassa, catalyzing the incorporation of [14C]glucose from ADP-[14C]glucose into a glucan of the glycogen type, is described. The properties of the ADPglucose: glycogen glucosyltransferase as compared with those of the already known UDP glucose: glycogen glucosyltransferase were studied. The radioactive products obtained with UDP-[14C]glucose or ADP-[14C]glucose released all the radioactivity as maltose after α or β amylase treatment. Glucose 6-phosphate stimulated the synthetase when UDP-[14C]glucose was the substrate but the stimulation was much greater with ADP-[14C]glucose as glucosyl donor. Glucose 6-phosphate plus EGTA gave maximal stimulation. The system was completely dependent on the presence of a 'primer' of the α 1 → 4 glucan type. © 1978.
