In chemistry, a<unk>  is a certain type of functional group that joins a carbohydrate (sugar) molecule to an alcohol, which may be another carbohydrate.
Specifically, a<unk>  is formed between the hemiacetal group of a saccharide (or a molecule derived from a saccharide) and the hydroxyl group of some alcohol. A substance containing a<unk>  is a glycoside.
