General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function in frog oocytes, glycogen synthesis through the direct pathway is under the control of hexokinase. Phosphoglucomutase and UDPG-pyrophosphorylase have a modest influence, while the control exerted by glycogen synthase is null. Compared with phosphoglucomutase, UDPG-pyrophosphorylase and glycogen synthase, hexokinase has the lowest activity (0.06 mU/oocyte) Xenopus laevis
