Popis: | Glycogen synthesis, whether in mammalian tissue, yeast, or Agrobacterium tumefaciens or other bacteria, is initiated by autoglucosylation of a protein. Initiation in muscle, by a self-glucosylating protein, glycogenin-1, is the most thoroughly studied system, as is described here. These relatively recent findings have prompted a rekindling of interest in the intermediates lying between the primer and mature mammalian glycogen. |
