BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), also known as mucopolysaccharides, are negatively-charged polysaccharide compounds. They are composed of repeating disaccharide units that are present in every mammalian tissue.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are linear polysaccharides comprised of disaccharide units, each of which is composed of an acetamido sugar (N-acetyl-d-glucosamine or N-acetyl-d-galactosamine) and a uronic acid (d-glucuronic or l-iduronic acid) or d-galactose units.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are large linear polysaccharides constructed of repeating disaccharide units with the primary configurations containing an amino sugar (either GlcNAc or GalNAc) and an uronic acid (either glucuronic acid and/or iduronic acid).

Detailed explanation-4: -Glycosaminoglycans are long unbranched polysaccharides which are composed of repeating disaccharide units and are also called GAGs or mucopolysaccharides due to their viscous and lubricating properties, just like in mucous secretions.
