Since glycogen-metabolizing tissues contain phosphoglucomutase, UDPG-pyrophosphorylase, ° glycogen-UDPglucosyl transferase, and phosphorylase, the presence of a glycogen cycle has been proposed (see Fig. 6). In rat tissues, the levels of the individual, enzymic activities are...

In assessing the role of G-6-Pase in hepatic metabolism it is of importance to know the rate of the phosphatase pathway in relation to the other available pathways of G-6-P metabolism. In liver, four pathways of metabolism arc available for G-6-P (1) to glycogen via phosphoglucomutase, (2)... 

Glucose 1-phosphate released from glycogen can be readily converted into glucose 6-phosphate (Section 21.1.3k an important metabolic intermediate, by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase.
