wikipedia explains it nicely

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorylase

"More generally, phosphorylases are enzymes that catalyze the addition of a phosphate group from an inorganic phosphate (phosphate+hydrogen) to an acceptor. Do not confuse this enzyme with ... a kinase. ... a kinase transfers a phosphate group from a donor (usually ATP) to an acceptor."
