6. GLYCOGENESIS AND GLYCOGENOLYSIS

Glycogenesis and glycogenolysis are two crucial processes involved in carbohydrate metabolism, specifically in the regulation of glucose levels in the body. Glycogenesis refers to the synthesis of glycogen, a branched polymer of glucose molecules, while glycogenolysis is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose. These processes are tightly regulated and play essential roles in energy storage and release. This article explores the processes of glycogenesis and glycogenolysis, their regulation, and their significance in carbohydrate metabolism.
