Key Enzymes and Actions in Glycogenolysis
A
Glycogen Phosphorylase breaks α(1→4) bonds, producing glucose 1-phosphate.
Debranching Enzyme moves units to extend another chain and removes final unit at a branch.
Phosphoglucomutase changes glucose 1-phosphate to glucose 6-phosphate, crucial for energy management.
