Answer:Glycosides are formed when the anomeric (hemiac-etal or hemiketal) hydroxyl group of a monosaccharide undergoes condensation with the hydroxyl group of a second molecule, with the elimination of water. The linkage resulting from such a reaction is known as a glycosidic bond. ...

Glycosides are condensation products of sugar (glycone) and non-sugar acceptor unit known as aglycone.
Explanation:
- The formation of glycosides occurs in two parts.
- At first, sugar phosphates react with UTP (uridine triphosphate) to form a sugar-uridine diphosphate sugar complex (sugar-UDP).
- Secondly, this complex reacts with the acceptor unit (aglycone) to form glycoside.
- The reactions can be represented as:
- The first reaction takes place in the presence of uridyl transferase while the second reaction takes place in the presence of glycosyl transferase.
