Understanding Glycogenolysis in Vertebrates: A Detailed Overview
In vertebrates, glycogen serves as a glucose reservoir in the liver and skeletal muscles. Glycogenolysis is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate, crucial for providing glucose to tissues in the absence of dietary sources. Enzymes like glycogen phosphorylase, debranching enzyme, and pho
