retina the glycogen phosphorylase isoform BB (brain), but not the glycogen phosphorylase MM isoform (muscle) is expressed in the chicken retina in neuronal and glial cells. Glycogen phosphorylase is expressed in various layers of the retina some of which, e.g., the photoreceptor inner segments, are known to be sites of high energy consumption. This suggests important roles of glycogen phosphorylase BB, and therefore glycogen, in early differentiation, spontaneous wave generation and in formation and stabilization of synapses Gallus gallus
