Which of the following statements is FALSE?
A) A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to a decrease in the amount of unphosphorylated phosphorylase kinase.
B) A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would not increase the affinity of adrenaline for the adrenergic receptor.
C) A constitutively active mutant form of PKA in skeletal muscle cells would lead to an excess in the amount of glucose available.
