General description
Glycogen is a branched polymer of glucose synthesized by animal cells for energy storage and release. It is constructed of predominantly α1→4 glycosidic bonds with branches created through α1→6 glycosidic bonds.

What are glycogens?
1 answer-
Per Biochemistry, Lehninger ed., 2nd ed, p. 266: A general description of glycogens is: A polymer of alpha (1->4) linked D-Glucose with alpha (1->6) branching at about ever 8 to 12 glucose residues. The molecular weight for bovine source is not mentioned, but glycogen in general is 270,000-3.5 million.
