Question
Chapter 11, Problem 27P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The amino acids that are used for the attachment of carbohydrates to proteins needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Amino acids are organic compounds with amino and carboxyl functional groups. There is a particular side chain to each amino acid. The elements present in the amino acids ate C, H, O and N atom. Carbohydrates are used to provide energy through the amino acids which use proteins as the main source.
