Questions and Answers

What is the key enzyme involved in glycogenesis?

  • Glycogen synthase (correct)
  • Branching enzyme
  • UDP-glucose
  • Tyrosine

    • How is glycogen synthesis initiated?

  • Through the addition of glucose units to reducing ends
  • Through the formation of a 1-6 glycosidic bond
