Figure 5.

Effect of the "sticky" attribute. This figure shows the effect of the "sticky" attribute on the placement of residues. If a position is "sticky", all the subsequent children are placed in position 0: in this way it is possible to force sub-trees in regions with a change in orientation to be drawn as a sequences (a), thus avoiding the creation of spiralling series of residues (b). The structure drawn in this figure does not represent an actual glycan.
