Carbohydrates CARBOHYDRATES PREPARED BY Dr.V. SANGEETHA, Asst Professor & HOD, Department of Chemistry, Kongunadu Arts and Science College, Coimbatore - 29 LECTURE OUTLINE By the end of the lecture, the student should know: The Importance of carbohydrates. The Definition of Carbohydrates. The Classification of Carbohydrates. The Difference between various Isomers.. CARBOHYDRATE: IMPORTANCE Most Abundant Class of Biomolecules. An Important Macronutrient. Performs important physiological functions in the body. Associated with Pathological Conditions (Diabetes Mellitus, Lactose Intolerance). DEFINING CARBOHYDRATES Carbohydrates or Saccharides (Greek Sakcharon meaning "Sugar") Organic compounds composed of Carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen. Many Carbohydrates also contain Nitrogen and other elements. Carbohydrates derive their name from a Misleading Concept 'Hydrates of Carbon’ Hydrogen and Oxygen in Carbohydrates were found to be present in the same proportion as in water. (2:1).(E.g. Glucose C6H12O6 or C6 (H2O)6). It is due to this fact that compounds derived their name “Carbon Hydrate”. GLUCOSE H-C=O H-C-OH OH-C-H H-C-OH H-C-OH CH2OH This term is not a perfect derivation as many carbohydrates do not have the same proportion as water. Example: DEOXYRIBOSE (C5H10O4) H-C=O H-C-H H-C-OH H-C-OH CH2OH CHEMICAL DEFINITION OF CARBOHYDRATES Polyhydroxyl: Having more than one hydroxyl group. (-OH) Functional Group: It is a specific group of atoms or bonds which are part of a larger hydrocarbon chain.(Provide a specific chemical behaviour). For carbohydrates, the functional group is the carbonyl group which may be either Aldehyde Group (H-C=O) Or Keto Group (C=O) WHAT IS SIMILAR & DIFFERENT IN THESE TWO STRUCTURES? H-C=O CH2OH H-C-OH C=O More than one hydroxyl group in both OH-C-H OH-C-H H-C-OH H-C-OH CH2OH CH2OH WHAT IS COMMON & DIFFERENT IN THESE TWO STRUCTURES?

THEY ARE ALSO DESIGNATED AS CARBOHYDRATES. THEREFORE, THE COMPLETE DEFINITION OF CARBOHDRATES IS: CARBOHYDRATES ARE POLYHYDROXYL ALCOHOLS WITH POTENTIALLY ACTIVE CARBONY GROUPS WHICH MAY BE EITHER AN ALDEHYDE OR KETONE GROUP. THEY ALSO CONTAIN THOSE COMPOUNDS, WHICH YIELD THEM ON HYDROLYSIS. CLASSIFICATION OF CARBOHYDRATES Carbohydrates are mainly classified into four different groups: Monosachharides Disaccharides Oligosaccharides Polysaccharides MONOSACCHARIDES Monosaccharides are those carbohydrates which Cannot be Hydrolyzed further into more simple carbohydrates. Thus, they are the Simplest form of Carbohydrates. Familiar examples are: Glucose, Fructose, Ribose & Galactose. MONOSACCHARIDES ARE FURTHER CLASSIFIED ON THE BASIS OF: Aldehyde or Ketone Group: Aldomonosaccharides (Aldoses). Ketomonosaccharides (Ketoses). Carbon Chain Length. Trioses. Tetroses. Pentoses. Hexoses. Heptoses.

IT IS THE SMALLEST POSSIBLE STRUCTURE THAT IS A CARBOHYDRATE CANNOT HAVE LESS THAN 3 CARBON ATOMS. GENERAL FORMULA OF MONOSACCHARIDE: (C•H2O)N (WHERE N IS ANY NUMBER OF THREE OR GREATER) ISOMERISM Isomers are basically molecules that have the same chemical formula but they differ in their chemical structures. Asymmetric Carbon is an important determinant of Isomerism. Asymmetric Carbon is that Carbon which is attached with four different groups. STRAIGHT CHAIN STRUCTURE OF TYPICAL MONOSACCHARIDE (GLUCOSE) Anomeric Carbon Epimeric Carbons Penultimate Carbon Terminal Alcohol Carbon THE ASSIGNMENT OF D OR L IS MADE ACCORDING TO THE ORIENTATION OF THE PENULTIMATE CARBON If the Hydroxyl Group is on the right the molecule is a D sugar, Otherwise It is an L sugar. OH H L-Sugar : D-Sugar D AND L ISOMERISM PRODUCE MIRROR IMAGES EPIMERISM Isomers which differ from each other only with regard to oh group on a single asymmetric carbon atom. OPTICAL ISOMERS When a beam of polarized light is passed through sugars, they will be rotated either towards right or left. Right Rotation (dextrorotatory) E.g. D- Glucose Left Rotation (levorotatory) E.g. D- Fructose MONOSACCHARIDE DERIVATIVES OF BIOLOGICAL IMPORTANCE Oxidation Products (Sugar Acids) Reduction Products (Sugar Alcohols). Amino Sugars. Sugar Phosphates. OXIDATION PRODUCTS (SUGAR ACIDS) When oxidized under proper conditions, Aldoses may form three types of acids (Sugar Acids): Uronic Acids. Aldonic acids. Saccharic Acids. Type of sugar Acid produced depends on which carbon is oxidized.

Since many common fermentation hosts, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, are naturally unable to convert many component plant cell wall polysaccharides, the identification of organisms with broad catabolism capabilities represents an opportunity to expand the range of substrates used in fer- mentation biorefinery approaches. The red basidiomycete yeast Rhodosporidium to- ruloides is a promising and robust host for lipid- and terpene-derived chemicals. Pre- vious studies demonstrated assimilation of a range of substrates, from C5/C6 sugars to aromatic molecules similar to lignin monomers. In the current study, we analyzed the potential of R. toruloides to assimilate D-galacturonic acid, a major sugar in many pectin-rich agricultural waste streams, including sugar beet pulp and citrus peels.

In structure, oligosaccharides represent a class of carbohydrates between polysaccharides and monosaccharides, but the range of degree of polymerization (DP, chain length) spanned by oligosaccharides has not been consistently defined. For example, the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) database of the US National Library of Medicine defines oligosaccharides as carbohy- drates consisting of 2–10 monosaccharide units; in other literature, sugar polymers with DPs of up to 30–40 have been included as oligosaccharides [1–3].

Daoud Carbohydrates (CHO) Definition: Aldehyde or Ketone derivatives of the higher polyhydric alcohols or compounds which yield these derivatives on hydrolysis. Classification: (mono, di, oligo, poly) saccharide. Monosaccharides: Can be classified as trioses, tetroses, pentoses, hexoses and heptoses depending upon the number of carbon atoms, and as aldoses or ketoses, depending upon whether they have an aldehyde or ketone group. Aldehyde (-CHO) Aldoses Ketone (-C=O) Ketoses Polysaccharides (glycans): Homopolysaccharides (homoglycans): e.g. starch, glycogen, inulin, cellulose, dextrins, dextrans. Heteropolysaccharides (heteroglycans): e.g. mucopolysaccharides (MPS) or glycosaminoglycans. Function of CHO: 1) Chief source of energy (immediate and stored energy). 2) Constituent of compound lipids and conjugated protein. 3) Structural element like cellulose. 4) Drugs like cardiac glycosides and antibodies. 5) Lactating mammary gland (Lactose in milk). 6) Synthesis of other substances like fatty acids, cholesterol, amino acids…etc. by their degradation products. 7) Constituent of mucopolysaccharides. 1 1) Stereo-isomerism Stereo-isomers: D-form, L-form 2) Optical isomers (optical activity) Enantiomers: dextrorotatory (d or + sign) Levorotatory (l or – sign) Racemic (d l) 3) Cyclic structures or open chain 4) Anomers and Anomeric carbon OH on carbon number 1, if below the plane then its -form, if above the plane then -form.

  • Engineering Saccharomyces Cerevisiae for Co-Utilization of D
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-07589-w OPEN Engineering Saccharomyces cerevisiae for co- utilization of D-galacturonic acid and D-glucose from citrus peel waste Ryan J. Protzko1, Luke N. Latimer2, Ze Martinho3, Elise de Reus4, Tanja Seibert5,6, J. Philipp Benz 5 & John E. Dueber 3,7 1234567890():,; Pectin-rich biomasses, such as citrus peel and sugar beet pulp, hold promise as inexpensive feedstocks for microbial fermentations as enzymatic hydrolysis of their component poly- saccharides can be accomplished inexpensively to yield high concentrations of fermentable sugars and D-galacturonic acid (D-galUA). In this study, we tackle a number of challenges associated with engineering a microbial strain to convert pectin-rich hydrolysates into commodity and specialty chemicals. First, we engineer D-galUA utilization into yeast, Sac- charomyces cerevisiae. Second, we identify that the mechanism of D-galUA uptake into yeast is mediated by hexose transporters and that consumption of D-galUA is inhibited by D-glucose. Third, we enable co-utilization of D-galUA and D-glucose by identifying and expressing a heterologous transporter, GatA, from Aspergillus niger. Last, we demonstrate the use of this transporter for production of the platform chemical, meso-galactaric acid, directly from industrial Navel orange peel waste. 1 Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA. 2 Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA. 3 Department of Bioengineering, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA. 4 Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine, Technical University of Denmark, 2800 Kgs Lyngby, Denmark. 5 Holzforschung München, TUM School of Life Sciences Weihenstephan, Technische Universität München, Freising, Germany.

The separation was performed on a CarboPacTM PA-10 column (250 mm × 2 mm) with a various gradient elution of NaOH-NaOAc solution as the mobile phase. The calibration curves showed good linearity (R2 ≥ 0.9993) for the monosaccharides, uronic acids, and aldonic acids in the range of 0.1 to 12.5 mg/L. The detection limits (LODs) and the quantification limits (LOQs) were 4.91 to 18.75 μg/L and 16.36 to 62.50 μg/L, respectively. Relative standard deviations (RSDs) of the retention times and peak areas for the seven consecutive determinations of an unknown amount of mixture were 0.15% to 0.44% and 0.22% to 2.31%, respectively. The established method was used to separate and determine four monosaccharides, two uronic acids, and two aldonic acids in the prehydrolysate from dilute acid steam-exploded corn stover within 21 min. The spiked recoveries of monosaccharides, uronic acids, and aldonic acids ranged from 91.25% to 108.81%, with RSDs (n=3) of 0.04% ~ 6.07%.
