From: Section 21.5, Glycogen Breakdown and Synthesis Are Reciprocally Regulated

Figure 21.22Glucose Regulation of Liver Glycogen Metabolism
Glucose binds to and inhibits glycogen phosphorylase a in the liver, leading to the dissociation and activation of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) from glycogen phosphorylase a. The free PP1 dephosphorylates glycogen phosphorylase a and glycogen synthase b, leading to the inactivation of glycogen breakdown and the activation of glycogen synthesis.
