DS/ Reducing vs non-reducing α ( D) glucopyranosyl 1 2 fructofuranoside β ( D) galactopyranosyl 1 4 glucopyranose SucroseLactose
2
Amylose amylopectin glycogen cellulose
3
DS that are formed by the linkage of sugars derivatives
5
Definition and properties: Definition and properties: *They are composed of many sugar residues. *They are composed of many sugar residues. *All are nonreducing. *All are nonreducing. Polysaccharides
7
PS/Different classification. 1- Branched vs linear polysaccharides. 1- Branched vs linear polysaccharides. Example: amylose, inulin, and amylopectin, glycogen 2- Sturctural vs storage polysaccharides. 2- Sturctural vs storage polysaccharides. Example: Cellulose, pectin and glycogen, inulin. Example: Cellulose, pectin and glycogen, inulin. 3- Homo vs hetero polysaccharides. 3- Homo vs hetero polysaccharides. Example: Amylon, cellulose and glycosaminoglycanes. Example: Amylon, cellulose and glycosaminoglycanes.

PS/ linear vs Branched AmyloseAmylopectin / Glycogen Branched linear
10
Structural vs storage
11
Other Structural Polysaccharides Alginates - Ca-binding polymers in algae Alginates - Ca-binding polymers in algae and agaropectin - Agarose and agaropectin - galactose polymers Glycosaminoglycans - repeating disaccharides with amino sugars and negative charges Glycosaminoglycans - repeating disaccharides with amino sugars and negative charges
12
Dextrans If you change the main linkages between glucose from alpha(1,4) to alpha(1,6), you get a new family of polysaccharides - dextrans If you change the main linkages between glucose from alpha(1,4) to alpha(1,6), you get a new family of polysaccharides - dextrans Branches can be (1,2), (1,3), or (1,4) Branches can be (1,2), (1,3), or (1,4) Dextrans formed by bacteria are components of dental plaque Cross-linked are used as "" gels in column chromatography Cross-linked dextrans are used as "Sephadex" gels in column chromatography These gels are up to 98% water! These gels are up to 98% water!
13
PS/Homo vs Heteropolysaccharide Amylose, inulin, and amylopectin, glycogen, Cellulose Amylose, inulin, and amylopectin, glycogen, Cellulose Chitin - exoskeletons of crustaceans, insects and spiders, and cell walls of fungi Chitin - exoskeletons of crustaceans, insects and spiders, and cell walls of fungi Similar to cellulose, but Similar to cellulose, but C-2s are N- acetyl Cellulose strands are parallel, chitins can be parallel or antiparallel Cellulose strands are parallel, chitins can be parallel or antiparallel
14
Hetero PS (Glycosaminoglucans)
15
(GAG+ peptide) Glycoproteins vs Proteoglycans
17
Two main classes of ECM molecules: a) Glycosaminoglycans mostly proteoglycans polysaccharide chains - glycosaminoglycans, GAGs, covalently bound to proteins highly hydrated, porous, gels b) fibrous proteins (embedded in the above gel) structural (collagen, elastin) strengthen the ECM adhesive (fibronectin, laminin) attach cells to the appropriate part of ECM
18
Polysaccharides/ Peptidoglycanes Gram positive bacteria Gram Negative bacteria
19
Glycoproteins
20
Glycolipids (Crebroside, Ganglioside) Glycolipids Vs Lipopolysaccharides
