    Glycogen metabolism is controlled by insulin, which halts glycogen breakdown and starts glycogen synthesis. Synthesis and degradation of glycogen are reciprocally regulated so that when one process is active, the other is inhibited. Insulin plays a key role in controlling this reciprocal regulation of glycogen synthesis and degradation.
