Cloning and expression patterns of the brine shrimp (Artemia sinica) glycogen phosphorylase (GPase) gene during development and in response to temperature stress

Abstract: Glycogen serves as a metabolic reserve and is involved in macromolecular synthesis. Glycogen phosphorylase (GPase) is a key enzyme involved in intracellular glycogen catabolism, catalyzing the first step in glycogen degradation. In the diapause, GPase catalyzes glycogen into the closely related molecule, sorbitol. In this study, the full-length cDNA of the GPase gene (2,790 bp) was isolated from Artemia sinica for the first time by rapid amplification of cDNA ends technology. The GPase gene encoded a protein o… Show more

“…Glycogen phosphorylase and α-amylase, which break down polysaccharides into monosaccharides, were up-regulated. These two proteins are also up-regulated in various species exposed to LT stress [5658]. Moreover, some enzymes related to polysaccharides biosynthesis (maltooligosyl trehalose synthase, 1,4-alpha-glucan branching enzyme, glycogen synthase) underwent a decrease in levels.…”

“…Note that this normalization was also used to generate the 2D STOCSY in Figure S11. In Figure C, the carbohydrates still point down which indicates they are being used faster than the lipids, consistent with carbohydrates being the most readily available source of energy. Conversely, a plethora of signals point upward indicating that relative to lipids they are increasing in concentration. The majority of these are consistent with the full range of amino acids (see Figure S12), confirming that much of the early energy investments by the organisms are to convert carbohydrates/lipids into amino acids, likely for protein synthesis.…”

“…Glycogen participates in macromolecular synthesis as a metabolic reserve in animals. Glycogen phosphorylase (GP) is a key enzyme involved in intracellular glycogen catabolism and catalyzes the first step in glycogen degradation [ 53 ]. Glycogen phosphorylase-like ( GPL ) showed a down-regulated expression pattern in the experimental group in this study, it was hypothesized that Lvit- GIH2 had an inhibitory effect on GPL .…”
