| Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Abstract Besides the classic direct route, frog oocytes incorporate
glucosyl units into glycogen by the so-called indirect pathway.
The operation of both pathways depends on glucose
availability. Below 0.5 mM glucose (calculated intracellular concentration),
the indirect route accounts for 90% of polysaccharide
formation, while the direct pathway supports 70% of total
glucose incorporation when administered glucose is above
1.5 mM. A sigmoidal curve was obtained for the direct pathway
with nH = 2.04, and half saturation was reached at 2.6 mM glucose.
The curve for the indirect route presented an nH of 1.15 and
an S0.5 of 0.9 mM glucose. | en_US |
