Not to be confused with Glycolysis, Glycogenesis, or Gluconeogenesis.
GlycogenGlucoseGlucose-6-phosphate
Glycogenolysis is the breakdown of glycogen (n) to glucose-1-phosphate and glycogen (n-1). Glycogen branches are catabolized by the sequential removal of glucose monomers via phosphorolysis, by the enzyme glycogen phosphorylase.[1]
