Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5TY
Summary Introduction
Introduction: The glycosylation refers to the addition of the carbohydrate to lipids and proteins. The glycolipids and glycoproteins are one of the constituents of the cell membrane. The glycosylation contributes to the development of surface recognition in the cell membrane. It also contributes towards protection of the cell membrane.
