glycogenic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'new gig cyclone formed of glucose units?' is the wordplay.
'gig cyclone' can be anagrammed to 'GLYCOGENIC'.
However, I am not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?
