Glycogen Synthesis (Glycogenesis) Pathway

The video tutorial covers glycogen synthesis, explaining its structure, function, and the enzymes involved. It details the pathways of glucose utilization, highlighting the role of glycogenin and branching enzymes. The tutorial also discusses where glycogen is stored in the body, particularly in the liver and muscles, and its importance in maintaining blood glucose levels and providing energy during exercise.

How does the branching enzyme affect glycogen structure?

What happens to UDP glucose after it is used in glycogen synthesis?

What are the two major sites of glycogen storage in the body?

Discuss the differences in glycogen function between the liver and muscle.
