1. Glycogen
   Glycogen is a molecule that serves as the secondary long-term energy storage in animal and fungal cells, with the primary energy stores being held in adipose tissue. Glycogen is made primarily by the liver and the muscles, but can also be made by glycogenesis within the brain and stomach. Glycogen ...

16. glycogen
    Branched polymer of D-glucose (mostly a (1-4)-linked, but some a (1-6) at branch points). Size range very variable, up to 105 glucose units. Major short-term storage polymer of animal cells, and is particularly abundant in the liver and to a lesser extent in muscle. In the electron microscope glycogen has a characteristic 'asterisk/star' appearance.
