Glycogenesis is the process of glycogen synthesis, in which glucose molecules are added to chains of glycogen for storage. Glucose is converted into glucose-6-phosphate by the action of glucokinase or hexokinase.
In the narrative of I Maccabees, after Antiochus issued his decrees forbidding Jewish religious practice, a rural Jewish priest from Modiin, Mattathias the Hasmonean, sparked the revolt against the Seleucid Empire by refusing to worship the Greek gods.udea had been under Ptolemaic rule, but fell to the Seleucids around 200 BCE. Judea at that time had been affected by the Hellenization begun by Alexander.

It was some 4 billion years afterwards, with some exceptions, that animals first left their mark in the fossil record. But it was during this Precambrian period when profound events occurred, leading ultimately to life as we know it today. From 4500 to 3800 mya (the Hadean) the earth was indeed a hostile place. During this period the sun formed by gravitational compaction, and eventually reached the temperature and pressure conditions for nuclear fusion.
