<p>

epinephrine (ligand) binds to &nbsp;G protein embedded in cell membrane,

which releases an alpha subunit, which</p>

<p>

binds to Adenylyl cyclase which

converts &nbsp;ATP to &nbsp;cAMP &nbsp;which</p>

<p>

activates &nbsp;protein kinase &nbsp;which

releases the catalytic subunits which become phospylated by ATP

(so they area activated by having picked up a phosphate)....</p>

<p>

it then drops off that phosphate to phosphorylase which acts on glycone to</p>

<p>

release &nbsp;glucose .</p>
