Identify glycosidic linkages for formation of chain and branches respectively in amylopectin.
- A \(\beta-1,6\) and \(\alpha-1,6\)
- B \(\alpha-1,6\) and \(\beta-1,4\)
- C \(\beta-1,4\) and \(\alpha-1,6\)
- D \(\alpha-1,4\) and \(\alpha-1,6\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\alpha-1,4\) and \(\alpha-1,6\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The C chain is the single, central chain that carries the only reducing group of the amylopectin molecule. The linear glucopyranosyl units are connected by α-(1→4) linkages, and the branch point is connected by α-(1→6) linkages.
