Which of the following is the odd one?
Fatty acids are found in oils, natural fats and complex lipids in the form of esters. Fatty acids are hydrocarbons with long chain which have 4-36 C atoms in addition to one carboxylic acid.
Which glycoprotein has O-glycosidic linkage?
Glycoconjugate molecules are biologically active. They are formed as a result of the covalent bonding of oligosaccharides and polysaccharides with lipid or protein molecules.
Which glycoconjugate can have more than one oligosaccharide chain along with covalent linkage with the polypeptide backbone?
Glycoconjugate molecules are biologically active. They are formed as a result of the covalent bonding of oligosaccharides and polysaccharides with lipid or protein molecules.
