Some glucose produced by gluconeogenesis is stored in the body as glycogen. Order the steps of glycogen synthesis. Not all descriptions accurately describe glycogen synthesis; therefore, not all the descriptions will be used. First step Last step Answer Bank Glycogen phosphorylase phosphorylates glucose-1-phosphate to produce glycogen Pyrophosphatase converts PP; and water into two P Glycogen synthase adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and UDP Glycogen synthase adds a glucose unit from ADP-glucose to glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and ADP UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase catalyzes the reaction of glucose-1-phosphate and UTP to UDP-glucose and PP
