Question
Chapter 22, Problem 4P
Interpretation Introduction
To explain:
The exergonic nature of glycogen synthase reaction.
Introduction:
In glycogen synthase reaction, uridine diphosphate glucose is added to the developing glycogen chain by the glycogen synthase enzyme. This glycogen synthesis reaction is exergonic. The other important feature is breaking down of glycogen reaction is also exergonic.

It transfers the acyl group (CH3CO) first from coenzyme A to a cysteine residue in the active site. This is similar to what happens in Chymotrypsin, however utilizing a sulfur instead of an oxygen. The acyl group is then transferred to the molecule ACP.
