Sucrase is an enzyme that breaks sucrose down into glucose and fructose what happens to the chemical bonds in sucrose when it binds to the enzyme sucrase?
Hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond results. Sucrose is reduced to glucose and fructose.
What types of bonds linke cellulose monomers together?
glycosidic linkage
Which polysaccharide contains only ß-1-4-glycosidic bonds?
Amylose
How do 2 monomers link together?
Carbohydrates is a very broard class of sugar molecules and monomers can join in many ways. 1,4- beta glycosidic bonds 1,4- alpha glycosidic bonds 1,6 glycosidic bonds 1 and 6 are refering to the carbon molecules and Beta and alpha refer to the orientation of the sugars with respect to each other. But for a simple answer they connect to each other by glycosidic bonds.
What kind of bond link the monomers in a protein?
peptide bonds chain together the monomers of a protein (ergo called polypeptides).
What are some characteristics of glycogen phosphorylase?
I, II, and III I. It is the rate-limiting enzyme of glycogenolysis II. It breaks alpha 1,4 glycosidic bonds III. It is activated by epinephrine
Does amylose contain only 1-4 glycosidic bonds?
Yes! Only 1->4 Glycosidic bonds in Amylose!
STarch is held together by peptide bonds not glycosidic linkage?
No, starch is held together by a-1,4 glycosidic linkages. Carbohydrates, starch in this case, form glycosidic bonds while proteins (amino-acids) are the ones that form peptide bonds.!!!
Sucrase is an enzyme that breaks sucrose down into glucose and fructose what happens to the chemical bonds in sucrose when it binds to the enzyme sucrase?
Hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond results. Sucrose is reduced to glucose and fructose.
What is the bond that links monosaccharides in di- and polysaccharides?
A glycosidic bond is a type of bond that joins sugar molecules to each other.
Does ATP have glycosidic bonds?
Yes. ATP has an N-glycosidic bond where the ribose sugar attaches to adenine.
What type of bond holds carbohydrates together?
glycosidic bonds
How could you describe the action of salivary amylase?
It hydrolyzes alternative glycosidic bonds to convert starch into maltose. In simple terms, it breaks down starch into sugars.
What type of bond holds together two monosaccharides?
glycosidic bond!!!
What is the name of the bond formed between glucose molecules when starch is formed?
Glycosidic Bond
If 15 glucoses are bonded with each other by glycosidic bonds what macromolecule will be formed?
A bunch of glucose molecules joined by glycosidic bonds forms either glycogen or starch, depending on the way they are bonded together, i.e. depending on the nature of the glycosidic bond.
Why is Lysozyme is not effective against viruses?
Lysozyme (or muramidase) acts against peptidoglycan, as that found in bacterial cell walls but not in viruses. It stresses and breaks the glycosidic bond between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine, two alternating monosaccharides of the sugar component of peptidoglycan.
