QUESTION

Phosphorylase A converts?

OPTIONS

(A) Glucose to fructose
(B) Fructose to glucose
(C) Glycogen to glucose
(D) None of the above

ANSWER

(C) Glycogen to glucose

EXPLANATION

Glycogen to glucose is the correct option because glycogen phosphorylase removes glucose residues from glycogen as glucose-1-phosphate during glycogenolysis, with subsequent conversion toward glucose. The enzyme does not convert glucose to fructose or fructose to glucose; those reactions belong to other metabolic pathways and enzymes.
