Transcribed Image Text:The diversity of functional groups on sugars that can form glycosidic bonds greatly increases the information content of glycans relative to oligopeptides. Consider three
amino acids, A, B, and C.
Part A
How many tripeptides can be formed from one molecule of each amino acid?
Express your answer as an integer.
VE ΑΣΦ

Part B
Request Answer
?
tripeptides
Now consider three sugars-glucose, glucuronic acid, and N-acetylglucosamine. Use shorthand (e.g., Glca(1 → 4)GlcUAß(1 → 4)GlcNAc) to represent
trisaccharides with the sequence Glc - GlcUA - GlcNAc.
Select all that apply.
Glcß(1 →4)GlcUAß(1 → 4)GlcNAc
Glca(1→ 5)GlcUAa(1 → 4)GlcNAc
Glca(14) GlcUAß(1 → 3)GlcNAc
Glca(1 → 1)GlcUAa(1 → 1)GlcNAc
Glcß(4 →4) GlcUAa(4 →4)GlcNAc
Glca (12)GlcUAa(1 → 3)GlcNAc
Gleß(15)GlcUAß(1 → 5)GlcNAc
Glcß(1 →4)GlcUAa(5 → 1)GlcNAc
