Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: To characterize Step 1 in glycogenesis in terms of the type of reaction.
Concept introduction: Glucose is a monosaccharide with the molecular formula
Glycogenesis is the
In the isomerization reaction, a molecule transformed itself to another molecule, having the same number of atoms with a different arrangement.
(b)
Interpretation: To characterize Step 2 in glycogenesis in terms of the type of reaction.
Concept introduction: Glucose is a monosaccharide with the molecular formula
Glycogenesis is the metabolic pathway that converts
In the activation reaction, a high energy-molecule activates another molecule.
