Glycoproteins are primarily composed of two types of monomers: amino acids and carbohydrates. The amino acids form the protein backbone, while carbohydrates, typically in the form of oligosaccharides, are covalently attached to the protein. This glycosylation can occur at specific amino acid residues, such as asparagine, serine, or threonine, and plays a crucial role in the structure and function of glycoproteins.
What else can I help you with?
what simple molecule that can be linked by chemical bonds to form a larger molecule?
A monomer is a fairly simple molecule that can be joined by covalent bonds to form larger molecules called polymers. Two monomers constitute a dimer. Three constitute a trimer. And, beyond that, it is just called a polymer.
Why does glycoproteins reacts positively with Molisch reagent?
Glycoproteins give positive results for Molisch's test. This answer is true because Molisch test was a test for sugar.
Which is smaller polymers or monomers?
Monomers.
Do proteins lipids carbs and nucleic acids have monomers?
Yes, proteins have monomers called amino acids, lipids do not have monomers, carbohydrates have monomers called monosaccharides, and nucleic acids have monomers called nucleotides.
What is an monomers of a nucleic acids?
Nucleotides are the monomers. More specifically, the monomers are: Adenine Guanine Cytosine Thymine
What is monosaccharide made up of?
monosachharides (monomers) bond together to form polysachharides- these are polymers made up of repeating monomer units and constitute sugars.
Where are glycoproteins located?
Glycoproteins are found on the outside of the cell membrane

Proteins with sugar molecules attached to them are called what?
glycoproteins
What is the function of the glycoproteins on the outside of the virus?
Glycoproteins are proteins that contain sugars and polipetides.
Why does glycoproteins reacts positively with Molisch reagent?
Glycoproteins give positive results for Molisch's test. This answer is true because Molisch test was a test for sugar.
What do glycoproteins attached to?
oligosaccharides
What synthesises glycoproteins?
ER
Which is smaller polymers or monomers?
Monomers.
What membrane surface are thought to be most important as cells recognize each other?
glycoproteins. i swear. glycoproteins. i swear.
Can naked virus have glycoproteins?
Unlike enveloped viruses that have glycoproteins on their envelopes, glycoproteins project out from the capsid of a naked virus. Most diagrams will show them on the end of spider looking legs projecting from the bottom of the capsid.
What is the organic compound that makes cell walls rigid?
It depends on what kind of cell you are talking about. Plant cells have cellulose in their walls that make them rigid. Bacteria have peptidoglycan. Archaea have a couple of possibilities: glycoproteins, pseudopeptidoglycan or polysaccharides. Fungi have chitin that make them pretty rigid. And, algae can have glycoproteins, polysaccharides or silicic acid.
