     <p class="space20"> Glycogen is a polysaccharide composed of glucose units linked by alpha 1-4 glycosidic bonds. Each linear chain contains approximately 13 glucose residues and, except of course for the outermost tier of the molecule, a number of alpha 1-6 glycosidic bonds, which allow branching, that are 3–4 residues apart.</p>

        <p class="space20">This simple model - created for our wiki by the SWEET software - shows a small section of a glycogen molecule consisting of 91 glucose units which are contained within 7 branches and 3 tiers. The 1-4 linked sections can be seen to coil into a helical shape, and the 1-6 linkages form helical branches away from the centre of the molecule.</p>
