The Glycogen-Binding Domain on the AMPK β Subunit Allows the Kinase to Act as a Glycogen Sensor
Open accessAbstract
AMPK beta subunits contain a conserved domain that causes association with glycogen. Although glycogen availability is known to affect AMPK regulation in vivo, the molecular mechanism for this has not been clear. We now show that AMPK is inhibited by glycogen, particularly preparations with high branching content. We synthesized a series of branched oligosaccharides and show that those with a single alpha1-->6 branch are allosteric inhibitors that also inhibit phosphorylation by upstream kinases. Removal of the outer chains of glycogen using phosphorylase, thus exposing the outer branches, renders inhibition of AMPK more potent. Inhibition by all carbohydrates tested was dependent on the glycogen-binding domain being abolished by mutation of residues required for carbohydrate binding. Our results suggest the hypothesis that AMPK, as well as monitoring immediate energy availability by sensing AMP/ATP, may also be able to sense the status of cellular energy reserves in the form of glycogen.

Deliberately withholding CHO after a high quality training session may benefit by minimizing glycogen restoration and extending the period during which adaptive responses are elevated.
“there may even be benefits from deliberately withholding CHO after a high quality training session to minimise glycogen restoration and extend the period during which adaptive responses are elevated (65).”
From Postexercise muscle glycogen resynthesis in humans. (2017) · cites this paper as [65]
The Introduction and Discussion (pages unavailable) link muscle glycogen levels to AMPK regulation and propose that glycogen depletion may make AMPK available to act on downstream targets. They do not assess withholding carbohydrate after training or show that it extends elevated adaptive responses, so the proposed benefit goes beyond the paper's findings. (LLM, conf=0.82)

AMPK has the capacity to be modulated by the glycogen storage status of a cell; the β-subunit of AMPK binds to specific branch points on glycogen, inhibiting the enzyme and preventing it from being phosphorylated by upstream kinases.
“In addition to being a direct AMP:ATP ratio sensor, AMPK also has the capacity to be modulated by the glycogen storage status of a cell [20].The β-subunit of AMPK binds to specific branch points on glycogen inhibiting the enzyme and preventing it from being phosphorylated by upstream kinases [20].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
