| dc.description.abstract | In animals glycogen is the main storage form of fuel material. It is a multi-branched polysaccharide of glucose. Excess of glucose in body get stored in the form of glycogen for further utilization. In future when the body gets starvation condition the stored glycogen in the body gets split into its monomer constituent glucose. The glucose is then utilized by the body to fulfill the energy requirement. Breakdown of glycogen is known as glycogenolysis. It is a step by step process that produces glucose. In the present chapter we will discuss the structure and function of glycogen. The detailed mechanism of glycogenolysis is discussed in the chapter. Moreover we also discussed the regulation of this metabolic process. ? 2017 Nova Science Publishers, Inc. All rights reserved. | en_US |
