So if we compare this linear polymer to this branched polymer, we see that we have many more branching points here. And as a result, we have many more of these terminal non reducing glucose residues than compared to this particular case. And so the rate at which synthesis and breakdown takes place on this molecule is much higher than on this linear molecule. So now that we know why this process takes place, let's discuss how it actually takes place. So what's the enzyme that forms these Alpha One Six glycocytic bonds? Well, the enzyme is known as glycogen branching enzyme.
