Chapter 8 (part2) Carbohydrates: oligo- and polysaccharides
Glycosidic Linkage
Disaccharides maltose cellobiose lactose sucrose -D-glucosyl-(1->4)- -D-glucopyranose) -D-glucosyl-(1->4)- -D-glucopyranose) -D-galactosyl-(1->4)- -D-glucopyranose) -D-glucosyl-(1->2)- -D-fructofuranose)
Higher Oligosaccharides
Oligosaccharide groups are incorporated in to many drug structures
Polysaccharides
Amylose and Amylopectin
Iodine binding to starch
glycogen
Dextrans
Cellulose
Cellulose vs Amylose Glucose units rotated 180 o relative to next residue cellulose amylose
Cellulose
Chitin
Chitin vs Cellulose
Glycoproteins
O-linked Glycoproteins
Blood ABO Antigens Structure of the ABO blood group carbohydrates, R represents the linkage to protein in the secreted forms, sphingolipid in the cell-surface bound form open square = GlcNAc, open diamond = galactose, filled square = fucose, filled diamond = GalNAc, filled diamond = sialic acid (NANA)
N-linked Glycoproteins
