4th/Sep changes:removed "the initiation of" because arguable synthesis begins with formation of glucose to G6P (which then becomes G1P then UDP-glucose and only then glycogen) Unsure yet how to reference, but used "Lehinger Principles of Biochemistry", David L Nelson and Michael M.

Merger proposal[edit]

  • Support – Glyogenin is an enzyme while EC 2.4.1.186 (glycogenin glucosyltransferase) is the reaction catalyzed by this enzyme. Strictly speaking, the two are different. However the two subjects are so interrelated (the enzyme is autocatalytic; the enzyme catalyzes attachment of glucose to itself). So I believe they should be merged. However I am checking to make sure no one objects. Boghog (talk) 20:27, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tyr-194 or Tyr-195, which one?[edit]

This article says that the residue where the growth of the glucose chain happens is Tyr-194. Numerous studies say it is Tyr-194, but many others also claim it is Tyr-195 (ex1). Some even claim it is Tyr-195, but cite a source where it is claimed to be Tyr-194 in the headline (ex2, 8th ref "...Tyrosine 194 is essential for function"). Which one is it?
