Amino acids to which sugars link are I said glycated protien

Amino acids to which sugars link are????.... I said glycated protiens and that is not correct.

Solution

Ans : glycoproteins

As the name suggests, glycoproteins have sugar as well as an amino acid moeity in their molecule.

The sugar links to the nitrogen atom of the amide group or to the oxygen atom of the side chain of amino acid molecule.

So it is a type sugar molecule that has protein attached to it.
