What is the difference between phosphorylase and phosphatase?

Phosphorylase adds the Phosphate group to substrate, but phosphatase takes off the Phosphate group from the substrate. the function of phosphorylase can be considered as same as kinase. they are all playing key roles in the cellular signalling transduction via control the phosphorylation, the phosphatase can be the negative or positive regulator for different pathways. e.g. PTP1B dephosphorylates the JAK2 to suppress leptin in the hypothalamus that contribute to weight gain.

What is the last step in the sequence of events when cyclic AMP acts as a second messenger?

the last step is ofcourse glycogen breakdown.......before that inactive glycogen phosphorylase-b is activated and phosphorylated to glycogen phosphorylase-a by the help of activated phosphorylase kinase........ ......phosphorylase kinase was activated by activated protien kinase..and activated protien kinase was activated by cyclic amp...........
