| * Glucose-6-phosphatase converts glucose-6-phosphate to glucose | * Glucose-6-phosphatase converts glucose-6-phosphate to glucose | ||
| * Muscle tissue lacks glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme(this enzyme is present in liver) so it cannot convert glucose-6-phosphate to glucose | * Muscle tissue lacks glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme(this enzyme is present in liver) so it cannot convert glucose-6-phosphate to glucose | ||
| - | * glucose-6-phosphate goes to liver for formation of glucose | + | * Glucose-6-phosphate, which is release from muscle glycogen, will goes to liver and converted to glucose. |
| + | * So muscle tissue cannot directly contribute for blood glucose, it's need help of liver enzyme for coversion from glucose - 6 phosphate to glucose. | ||
| * Glucose-6-phosphate undergoes glycolysis in muscle tissue to produce ATP for muscle contraction | * Glucose-6-phosphate undergoes glycolysis in muscle tissue to produce ATP for muscle contraction | ||
