    Study Notes

    Monosaccharides and Polysaccharides: Structures and Functions

    • Monosaccharides can exist in different forms, such as α and β, depending on the position of the -OH groups.
    • Haworth projection formula is a two-dimensional notation that shows the three-dimensional structure of cyclic monosaccharides.
    • Anomers are cyclic monosaccharides that differ in the position of substituents on the anomeric carbon atom.
    • The configuration of monosaccharides can be α or β, determined by the direction of the -OH groups.
    • Monosaccharides can form pyranose (six-atom ring) or furanose (five-atom ring) structures.
    • The positioning of -OH groups in the Haworth projection formula determines the specific identity of a monosaccharide.
    • Monosaccharides can undergo oxidation to produce acidic sugars, such as aldaric acids and alduronic acids.
    • Reduction of the carbonyl group in monosaccharides yields sugar alcohols or alditols.
    • Glycoside formation involves the replacement of the hemiacetal carbon -OH group with an -OR group, producing acetal derivatives.
    • Disaccharides, such as lactose and maltose, are formed by the glycosidic linkage between two monosaccharides.
    • Blood types are determined by the presence of specific oligosaccharides on the plasma membranes of red blood cells.
    • Polysaccharides, such as cellulose and glycogen, are long chains of monosaccharide units bonded by glycosidic linkages.
