Following statements are true with respect to glycogen except
Principle storage of carbohydrate in the human body is glycogen
Liver and muscle are the main sites of glycogen storage
Produced by glycogenesis
Insulin stimulates glycogenolysis
Insulin inhibits glycogenolysis by oring the inactivation of glycogen phosphorylase and inhibiting glucose-6-phosphatase. The net effect of all these three mechanisms, blood glucose level is lowered.Ref: DM Vasudevan, 7th edition, page no: 321
