GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 12606277
Species: Ictidomys tridecemlineatus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Pygm
Name: glycogen phosphorylase, muscle associated
Acc ID: PW:0000534
Term: glycogen degradation pathway
Definition: Those metabolic reactions involved in the breakdown of glycogen to glucose-6-phosphate. Glucose-6-phosphate can then be dephosphorylated to glucose or it can be utilized via glycolysis for energy production; an alternative pathway of G6P utilization is the oxidative phase of the pentose phosphate shunt. A small percentage of glucose-6-phosphate can be converted to hexosamines.
Definition Source(s): GO:0005980, OneLook:www.onelook.com, Reactome:R-HSA-70221
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
