The question says, so in this question we have been asked regarding the glycro proteins and specifically the functions of glycoproteins that are present in the cell surface.
00:11
So before diving into the answer directly, let us know what are glycoproteins.
00:17
So glycoproteins as the name says, these are the proteins that are found in the cell and going by their name can know their structural property also.
00:27
So glycoproteins.
00:29
So these are a type of proteins or the chains of polypeptide chains which contain oligosaccharides.
00:39
So oligosaccharides are the carbohydrates that contain monomeric units of 1 to 9.
00:46
Okay.
00:47
So polypeptide chains or proteins that contain oligosaccharide chains and these oligosaccharide chains are connected to the proteins with.
00:57
A help of covalent bot.
01:00
And this process, that is the attachment of the oligosaccharides, that is the sugar molecules into the proteins, takes place by a very important process called as the glycosylation.
01:15
Where does it take place? and this takes place in the golgi apparatus.
01:20
And this glycoproteins are mainly or usually they are found in the cell membrane...
