Trehalose is a disaccharide that is digested into _____ and _____ by trehalase.

Increased phosphofructokinase-2 _____ glycolysis and inhibits gluconeogenesis

HMP shunt activity is primarily found in the _____ glands, liver, lactating mammary glands (females), and RBCs

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase is allosterically activated by _____ and inhibited by AMP and fructose-2,6-bisphosphate.

Increased insulin (fed) leads to decreased cAMP and protein kinase A, thus _____ activity of FBPase-2 and increasing activity of PFK-2

Glucose is converted to _____ by the enzyme glucokinase in the liver and beta cells of the pancreas

Galactose-1-phosphate is ultimately converted to _____ via the enzyme Gal 1-P uridyltransferase

Tarui disease presents similar to McArdle disease with additional _____ and hyperuricemia

Glycogen phosphorylase is regulated via negative feedback by _____, insulin, and glucose-6-phosphate

UDP-glucose contributes to _____ formation via the enzyme glycogen synthase
