So amylopectum is a branched polysaccharide that consists of glucose monomers linked via alpha 114 linkages and branches connected via alpha one six glycocytic bonds. And the branches occur every 30 or so units. So amylopectin is just like glycogen, except it contains less of these branching points that we find in glycogen. Now, inside our mouth, we have the salivary glands, and inside our small intestine, at least inside our body, we have the pancreas that basically release the alpha amylase. So both of these glands release alpha amylase. So salivary glands in our mouth and our pancreas produce the alpha amylase, which are responsible for basically breaking down these bonds.
