Glycogen degradation: Glycogenolysis

Inactive forms are shown in red, active forms are shown in green.

cAMP activates Protein Kinase A PKA activates phosphorylase kinase Glycogen phosphorylase activated, which catalyzes the breakdown of glycogen.

Glycogen synthesis: glycogenesis

Inactive forms are shown in red, active forms are shown in green.

cAMP activates Protein Kinase A Protein Kinase A phosphorylates and inactivates glycogen synthase.
