प्रश्न
What are glycosidic linkages? In which type of biomolecules are they present?
उत्तर
The two monosaccharides are joined together by an oxide linkage formed by the loss of a water molecule. Such a linkage between two monosaccharides are held together by a glycosidic linkage between C1 of α-glucose and C2 of β-fructose. Since the reducing groups of glucose and fructose are involved in glycosidic bond formation, between two monosaccharide units through oxygen atom is called glycosidic linkage.
