D)glycogen maltase

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glycogen phosphorylase is the enzyme found in liver and muscle tissue that catalyzes the hydrolysis of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate. Beta (1→6)-glucosidase is involved in the breakdown of cellulose, alpha-amylase breaks down starch, and glycogen maltase breaks down glycogen during the final stages of glycolysis.
