Summary Introduction

To explain: The importance of phosphoglucokinase for the normal function of phosphoglucomutase.

Concept introduction:

The enzyme glycogen phosphorylase removes glucose from the glycogen polymer chain and phosphorylates to generate glucose-1-phosphate (G1P). The G1P then quickly isomerizes to glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) by phosphoglucomutase and enters into glycolysis.
