Glycogen debranching enzyme
MAMMALIAN PROTEIN FOUND IN HOMO SAPIENS
Debrancher enzyme; Glycogen debranching enzyme system; Glycogen debrancher; AGL (gene)
A debranching enzyme is a molecule that helps facilitate the breakdown of glycogen, which serves as a store of glucose in the body, through glucosyltransferase and glucosidase activity. Together with phosphorylases, debranching enzymes mobilize glucose reserves from glycogen deposits in the muscles and liver.
