StrainBaker's yeast
DescriptionGlycogen, also known as animal starch or liver starch, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as oligosaccharides. These are carbohydrates made up of 3 to 10 monosaccharide units linked to each other through glycosidic bonds. Glycogen is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Glycogen exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within yeast, glycogen participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, glycogen can be biosynthesized from amylose through its interaction with the enzyme 1,4-alpha-glucan-branching enzyme. In addition, glycogen can be biosynthesized from α-D-glucose through the action of the enzyme maltase-glucoamylase, intestinal. In yeast, glycogen is involved in the metabolic pathway called the starch and sucrose metabolism pathway. Glycogen is a potentially toxic compound.
