Glycogen is composed of long polymer chains of glucose units which are bonded with an alpha acetal linkage. This acetal linkage forms by the combination of the carbonyl group and alcoholic group. If the carbonyl group is an aldehyde group i.e (-CHO) and also termed as hemiacetal if there is a ketonic group. If 2 alkoxy groups are bonded to the same carbon atom, it refers to the acetal group.

Glycogen is a branched polymer of glucose. Glucose residues are linked linearly by α-1,4 glycosidic bonds, and approximately every ten residues a chain of glucose residues branches off via α-1,6 glycosidic linkages. The α-glycosidic bonds give rise to a helical polymer structure.
