Chapter 27, Problem 27.33P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of $N\text{-acetylgalactosamine}$ conjugate with a threonine residue of an acceptor protein formed with inversion of configuration at the anomeric carbon is to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Proteins get attached with oligosaccharide to form glycoproteins. The reaction which involves the attachment of saccharide to a protein is known as glycosylation. There are two types of glycosylation, $N\text{-glycosylation}$ and $O\text{-glycosylation}$.
