Interconvertible Forms of Glycogen Phosphorylase in Neurospora crassa*

Abstract

Glycogen phosphorylase in extracts of N. crassa mycelia has two interconvertible forms: one active (a form) and the other inactive (b form) in the absence of 5′-AMP. The conversion of the b to the a form requires ATP-Mg2+ and proceeds at higher rate in the presence of 3′,5′-cyclic AMP.
