PROTEINS
They are heteropolymers of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
Amino acids contain amino (-NH2), and carboxyl (-COOH) as
functional group. Depending upon the relative position of the –
NH2 group w.r.t COOH group, the amino acids are classified as
, and so on.
There are 20 -amino acids used for protein synthesis. Their
chemical structure and designation are -

Glycosidic linkage
It is the bond formed when individual monosaccharides are linked
between 2 carbon through oxygen atom (C-O-C) by dehydration.
