Carbohydrates serve a variety of functions Energy storage and food Structure and support Lubrication Protection Recognition and signaling Component of nucleotides starch mucin (glycoprotein) surface glycoproteins cell wall peptidoglycan chitin and cellulose 2-deoxyribose

As for polypeptides, torsion angles describe the conformations of polysaccharides

Certain conformations (values of  and  ) are more energetically favored than others Both the identity of the monosaccharide units and how (where) they are linked will determine which conformations are preferred

We will cover 4 groups of polysaccharides: Polysaccharides Glycoconjugates Energy storage glycogen, amylopectin Structure & protection Recognition & adhesion cellulose, chitin glycosaminoglycans amylose proteoglycans glycolipids proteoglycans glycoproteins lipid protein peptidoglycan peptides

Energy storage polysaccharides of animals and plants are α-linked polymers of glucose Animals store glycogen, a branched homopolysaccharide with α1→4 and α1→6 linkages

Energy storage polysaccharides of animals and plants are α-linked polymers of glucose Animals store glycogen, a branched homopolysaccharide with α1→4 and α1→6 linkages

Energy storage polysaccharides of animals and plants are α-linked polymers of glucose Plants store starch, an aggregate of amylose (linear) and amylopectin (branched)

Animals and plants use α-linked glucose polymers for energy storage Plants store starch, an aggregate of amylose (linear) and amylopectin (branched)

Glycogen and starch adopt loose, hydrated, helical structures that pack into granules

Most structural polysaccharides are unbranched, β-linked polymers Cellulose, an unbranched glucose homopolymer, provides support and rigidity to plant cell walls

Most structural polysaccharides are unbranched, β-linked polymers Cellulose chains form intra- and intermolecular H- bonds, stacking to form cohesive and rigid fibers

Most structural polysaccharides are unbranched, β-linked polymers Chitin gives rigidity to crustacean and insect exoskeletons and to the cell walls of fungi and algae Linear homopolymer of GlcNAc; packing is similar to cellulose

Most structural polysaccharides are unbranched, β-linked polymers Glycosaminoglycans act as shock absorbers and lubricants in the extracellular spaces of tissues

Most structural polysaccharides are unbranched, β-linked polymers Abundance of negative charge keeps glycosamino- glycan chains extended, separated, and hydrated

Glycoconjugates have polysaccharides covalently bonded to other molecule types Peptidoglycan, composed of polysaccharides linked by peptides, comprises the bacterial cell wall

S. aureus peptidoglycan GlcNAc Mur2Ac

Proteoglycans are conjugates of proteins and glycosaminoglycans Proteoglycans are major components of connective tissue
