Glycogenolysis (also known as "Glycogenlysis")'s the catabolism of glycogen by removal of a glucose monomer through cleavage with inorganic phosphate to produce glucose-1-phosphate. This derivative of glucose's then converted to glucose-6-phosphate, an intermediate in glycolysis. The hormones glucagon and epinephrine stimulate glycogenolysis. Function Glycogenolysis transpires in the muscle and liver tissue, where glycogen's stored, as a hormonal response to epinephrine (for example, adrenergi… (
