disaccharide• consist of two monosaccharides joined covalently by an O-
glycosidic bond, which is formed when a hydroxyl group of one sugar reacts with the anomeric carbon of the other. This reaction represents the formation of an acetal from a hemiacetal (such as glucopyranose) and an alcohol (a hydroxyl group of the second sugar molecule).
• N-glycosyl bonds join the anomeric carbon of a sugar to a nitrogen atom in glycoproteins and nucleotides
• Glycosidic bonds are readily hydrolyzed by acid but resist cleavage by base.
• General formula is C12H22O11

Reducing end of sugars• The oxidation of a sugar’s anomeric carbon by cupric or
ferric ion (the reaction that defines a reducing sugar) occurs only with the linear form, which exists in equilibrium with the cyclic form(s).
• When the anomeric carbon is involved in a glycosidic bond, that sugar residue cannot take the linear form and therefore becomes a nonreducing sugar.
• In describing disaccharides or polysaccharides, the end of a chain with a free anomeric carbon (one not involved in a glycosidic bond) is commonly called the reducing end.

oligosaccharides• Oligosaccharides are short polymers of several
monosaccharides joined by glycosidic bonds. At one end of the chain, the reducing end, is a monosaccharide unit whose anomeric carbon is not involved in a glycosidic bond
• contain from 3 to roughly 12 monosaccharides linked together.• They are often found attached through N- or O-glycosidic
bonds to proteins to form glycoproteins. (O2 atom of serine or threonine by o- linkage, nitrogen of aspargine by N- glycosidic)
• Integral membrane proteins contains covalently attached units on their extracellular face.
• Many secreted proteins e.g. antibodies, coagulation factors contain .
• Helps in molecular targeting & cell-cell recognition• Required for endocytosis.

POLYSACCHARIDES• Most carbohydrates found in nature occur as
polysaccharides, polymers of medium to high molecular weight.
• also called glycans, differ from each other in the identity of their recurring monosaccharide units, in the length of their chains, in the types of bonds linking the units, and in the degree of branching.
• Homopolysaccharides contain only a single type of monomer;• heteropolysaccharides contain two or more different kinds

Complex Carbohydrates
• CelluloseMost abundant carbohydrate on the planet!
– Component of plant cell walls– Indigestible by animals
• β 1-4 bonds
• Starch– Energy storage molecule in plants – Can be digested by animals
• α 1-6 bonds
![Page 22: DISACCHARIDES Lecture for 1st year MBBS delivered by Dr. Waseem on 01 March 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062614/546a5d29b4af9f61098b457e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cellulose• Cellulose is a linear
polysaccharide in which some 1500 glucose rings link together. It is the chief constituent of cell walls in plants.
• Human digestion cannot break down cellulose for use as a food, animals such as cattle and termites rely on the energy content of cellulose. They have protozoa and bacteria with the necessary enzymes in their digestive systems. Only animals capable of breaking down cellulose are tunicates.
![Page 23: DISACCHARIDES Lecture for 1st year MBBS delivered by Dr. Waseem on 01 March 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062614/546a5d29b4af9f61098b457e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Starches • Starches are carbohydrates in which
300 to 1000 glucose units join together. It is a polysaccharide used to store energy for later use. Starch forms in grains with an insoluble outer layer which remain in the cell where it is formed until the energy is needed. Then it can be broken down into soluble glucose units. Starches are smaller than cellulose units, and can be more readily used for energy. In animals, the equivalent of starch is glycogen, which can be stored in the muscles or in the liver for later use.
• α-1,6 bonds

• Glycogen

polysaccharides can be linked to other molecules to form glyco-proteins and glyco-lipids
![Page 27: DISACCHARIDES Lecture for 1st year MBBS delivered by Dr. Waseem on 01 March 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062614/546a5d29b4af9f61098b457e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
GlycoproteinsSome examples
• Polysaccharide component of antibodies has major effect on antibody function
• Polysaccharides attached to proteins on surface of red blood cells (RBC) determine blood type (A,B,O)
• Polysaccharides are attached to proteins in the Golgi apparatus through a process of post-translational modification
• Different types of cells do different post-tranlational modifications– More about this later
![Page 28: DISACCHARIDES Lecture for 1st year MBBS delivered by Dr. Waseem on 01 March 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062614/546a5d29b4af9f61098b457e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Glycolipids• Polysaccharides can also be attached to lipid molecules
•An outer-membrane constituent of gram negative bacteria, LPS, which includes O-antigen, a core polysaccharide and a Lipid A, coats the cell surface and works to exclude large hydrophobic compounds such as bile salts and antibiotics from invading the cell. O-antigen are long hydrophilic carbohydrate chains (up to 50 sugars long) that extend out from the outer membrane while Lipid A (and fatty acids) anchors the LPS to the outer membrane.

Glycolipids
• Polysaccharides (blue) are also used in animal cells to link surface proteins and lipid anchors to the membrane.
