An example of LFO structure and the parameters used in the characterization of the conformations of LFOs. (a) An example of LFO structure with no branch. (b) The parameters used in the characterization of the conformations of LFOs: the upper-middle (χ6-7) and lower-middle (χ9-10) torsions for LFO15, (c) the upper-middle (χ4-5) and lower-middle (χ7-8) torsions for LFO10, (d) the molecular angles (θa) and middle torsions (χ3-4) for LFO5. (e) Examples of three dihedral angles between four fructosyl residues of LFO5, ω (C4-C5-C6-O6), ψ (C5-C6-O6-C2’) and ɸ (C6-O6-C2’-O5’). The carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms were colored in green, red and white, respectively. The six-membered ring of the glucosyl residue and the five-membered rings of fructosyl residue are shown in green and yellow, respectively
