Location of global minimum in the free energy landscape about the glycosidic dihedrals ϕ and ψ (°).
| Trisaccharide | ϕ/ψ (linkage 1)a | ϕ/ψ (linkage 2)a |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | −36/−24 | −54/−36 |

. Linkage 1 is defined for the linkage including the monosaccharide with one prime at the non-reducing end and linkage 2 includes the monosaccharide with double primes at the non-reducing end. See Figure 1 for the structural models.
