Glucode 1-Phosphate is the product of the breakdown of glycogen. A phosphorylase needs to be activated to cause an addition of [[Orthophosphate|orthophosphate]] [[Pi|(Pi)]] across the [[Glycosidic bond|glycosidic bond]] to produce two products: glucose 1-phosphate and [[glycogen|glycogen]] (n-1 residue). The glucose 1-phosphate can go into the [[Glycolysis|glycolysis]] pathway to be converted into glucose 6-phosphate and eventually produce energy <ref>Stryer, Lubert (2001) Biochemistry, 7th Edition, New York, W.H.

Glucode 1-Phosphate is the product of the breakdown of glycogen. A phosphorylase needs to be activated to cause an addition of orthophosphate (Pi) across the glycosidic bond to produce two products: glucose 1-phosphate and glycogen (n-1 residue). The glucose 1-phosphate can go into the glycolysis pathway to be converted into glucose 6-phosphate and eventually produce energy [1].
