of the glucosyl residue on the non-reducing end of the glycogen chain, forming more ?(1->4) bonds in the process.
* Branches are made by glycogen branching enzyme (also known as amylo-?(1:4)->?(1:6)transglycosylase), which transfers the end of the chain onto an earlier part via ?-1:6 glycosidic bond, forming branches, which further grow by addition of more ?-1:4 glycosidic units.
