One of the questions on my homework assignment is to explain why when radioactively tagged acetyl CoA is injected into a mouse, it partially presents itself within the mouse's glycogen stores.
Since acetyl CoA is not involved in glycogen synthesis at all (at least as far as I can see) how is this possible?
