Answers
Answer
What is glycosidic bond ?
The glycosidic bond are the bonds linked in a polysaccharides of the individual monosaccharides.
How This Bond Is Formed ?
In polypeptide, or a protein molecule, amino acids , these all are linked by a peptide bond which is formed when the carboxylic group of one amino acid reacts with the amino group of the next amino acid with the elimination of a water particles ,known as dehydration. Than the glycosidic bond is formed in the molecules of proteins chains. Or in simple words , when a peptide bonds is dehydrated it literally forms glycosidic bonds.
Where this Bond is formed ?
This bond is formed between two carbon atoms of two adjacent monosaccharides. In terms of bonding, The bond is formed by coupling of nucleophile and an electrophile.
Chemical Nature Of glycosidic bond ?
A glycosidic bond is a type of covalent bonds , In terms of chemically , the glycosidic bond is an acetal bond .
Types Of Glycosidic bonds ?
There are three different types of glycosidic bonds.
- O-glycosidic bond : This glycosidic bonds have oxygen atoms that links the glycoside to the aglycone or reducing end sugar.
- S-glycosidic bond : This type of bonds have sulphur atoms in place of oxygen.
- N-glycosidic bond : This bonds have the glycosidic bonds with nitrogen atoms. substances containing N-glycosidic bond are also known as glycosylamines.
