    Abstract:
    The relationship between glycogen phosphorylase activity and phosphorylation levels in the longissimus thoracis muscle post-mortem was studied. Sixty lamb samples were collected at 0.5 h, 2 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h post-mortem and divided into three groups (n = 6) with different glycolytic rates (fast, intermediate, and slow) according to the pH at 6 h post-mortem. The phosphorylation level and activity and expression of glycogen phosphorylase were determined. The results showed that the phosphorylation level and activity of glycogen phosphorylase in the slow pH decline group was lower than that in the fast pH decline group during 24 h post-mortem (P < .05). There was a significant positive correlation between the glycogen phosphorylase activity and the phosphorylation level. In conclusion, these data demonstrated that the glycogen phosphorylase activity in lambs was affected by phosphorylation levels and postmortem duration.
