What enzyme(s) is (are) required to cleave $\alpha$-1,6-glycosidic branches in glycogen?
A) transferase
B)$\alpha$-1,6-glucosidase
C) glycogen phosphatase
D) transferase and $\alpha$-1,6-glucosidase
E) $\alpha$-1,6-glucosidase and glycogen phosphatase

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct enzymes required for cleaving the 1,6-glycosidic branches in glycogen are transferase and a specific glucosidase, often referred to as debranching enzyme, which has both transferase and glucosidase activity. This combination is necessary for remodeling glycogen structure and releasing glucose from branched points.
