The Virtual Runner Learning Game [PDF]
A learning game has been developed which allows learners to study and learn about the significance of three important variables in human physiology (lactate, glycogen, and hydration) and their influence on sports performance during running.

Effects of pre-exercise carbohydrate consumption on metabolism during exercise [PDF]
It is well documented that consuming carbohydrates (CHO) prior to exercise has been shown to alter metabolism. There are many ways that CHO ingestion affects substrate utilization and blood glucose dynamics at the start of exercise.

Sugar versus fat: elimination of glycogen storage improves lipid accumulation in Yarrowia lipolytica
&NA; Triacylglycerol (TAG) and glycogen are the two major metabolites for carbon storage in most eukaryotic organisms. We investigated the glycogen metabolism of the oleaginous Yarrowia lipolytica and found that this yeast accumulates up to 16% glycogen ...

Expression and purification of functional human glycogen synthase-1:glycogenin-1 complex in insect cells [PDF]
We report the successful expression and purification of functional human muscle glycogen synthase (GYS1) in complex with human glycogenin-1 (GN1). Stoichiometric GYS1:GN1 complex was produced by co-expression of GYS1 and GN1 using a bicistronic pFastBac™-

Abnormal glycogen chain length pattern, not hyperphosphorylation, is critical in Lafora disease
Lafora disease (LD) is a fatal progressive epilepsy essentially caused by loss‐of‐function mutations in the glycogen phosphatase laforin or the ubiquitin E3 ligase malin. Glycogen in LD is hyperphosphorylated and poorly hydrosoluble.

Applying a novel method for the analysis of beef ultimate pH in the detection of quantitative trait loci : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Animal Breeding and Genetics at Massey University [PDF]
Beef ultimate pH (pHU) is an economically important trait related to meat quality. Values of pHU higher than the normal 5.5 have a detrimental effect on tenderness, colour and keeping quality. The amount of lactic acid that is produced by the conversion

Changes of gangliosides and other lipids in skeletal muscle from rabbits with experimental dystrophy
Comparison of the skeletal muscles from vitamin E-deficient and control rabbits showed that the muscles from the deficient animals had lower contents of protein and glycogen but more water and lipid.

Background: Impairment in metabolism of lipids, especially in liver tissue, is one of the main complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of hydroalcoholic extract of Satureja avromanica (HESA) on glycogen and lipid ...

Emerging Roles for Glycogen in the CNS
The ability of glycogen, the depot into which excess glucose is stored in mammals, to act as a source of rapidly available energy substrate, has been exploited by several organs for both general and local advantage.
