Chem331 Lect 12 Carbos Carbohydrates • Of the macromolecules that we will cover in this class, those involving carbohydrates are the most abundant in nature. • Via photosynthesis, over 100 billion metric tons of CO2 and H2O are converted into cellulose and other plant products. • The term carbohydrate is a generic one that refers primarily to carbon-containing compounds that contain hydroxyl, keto, or aldehydic functionalities. • Carbohydrates can range in sizes, from simple monosaccharides (sugars) to oligosaccharides, to polysaccharides. What Roles Do Carbohydrates Play In Vivo? Energy—Photosynthesis, (CO2+ lightàSugar + O2) Structure—cell walls and extracellular structures in plants, animals and bacteria Conjugation onto lipids, proteins—glycosylation – Molecular Recognition – Protein Folding – Solubility DNA – DNA backbone – DNA capping Carbohydrate Naming Monosaccharides—simple sugars, can’t be broken down, molecular formula (CH2O)n Oligosaccharides—a few (2-10) monosaccharides linked together (conventional names: disaccharide, etc.) Polysaccharides—polymers of simple sugars. Can have molecular weights >1x106 g/mol Monosaccharide Structure and Naming The simplest aldose and ketose are both trioses—containing 3 carbon atoms HEXOSES are the most abundant sugar in nature (think: glucose) Stereochemistry Aldoses >3 carbons and Ketoses > 4 carbons all have chiral centers. Nomenclature for sugars specifies chirality—compared to glyceraldehyde: Aldose and Ketose Tree – see your book for figure Enantiomers and Diastereomers Diastereomers have opposite conformations at one (epimers) or more chiral centers. Diastereomers are NOT mirror images Conformational Structures Emil Fisher - Nobel Prize 1891 Organic chemist who found the structure of D glucose Fisher projections - place most oxidized carbon on top Haworth Structures: carbons counted from anomeric C to clockwise from the oxygen in the ring (pyranose) or the #2 C for furanose Cyclic Form of Monosaccharides: Aldoses Recall hemiacetals: Example: The aldohexose glucose undergoes an INTRAMOLECULAR reaction to from a cyclic hemiacetal: a pyranose 1 Cyclic Form of Monosaccharides: Ketoses Sugars are Not Planar Structures Remember—neither furanose nor pyranose rings of monosachharides are actually planar—they are puckered. Recall from O-chem—bulky substituents on rings prefer to be in the equitorial vs axial positions For β-D-glucose, all bulky groups can be in the equatorial position Important monosaccharides Glucose - preferred source of energy for brain cells and cells without mitochondria Fructose - ketose, 2x as sweet as sucrose. Sperm use this as major sugar/energy source for motility Galactose - important for lacotose and glycolipid production – galactosemia - genetic disorder in galactose metabolism leads to accumulation of galactose-1-phosphate in liver results in liver damage. Another version of the disease results due to lack of galactose metabolism. Galactose concentration builds up in blood leading to cataracts. - Can result in severe mental retardation. Identification and galactose free diet helps Derivatives of Monosaccharides: Sugar Acids Sugar Acids – Free aldehydes on sugars are reducing reagents Diabetics often analyze the amount glucose found in their blood/urine using kits that detect the amount of reducing sugars present Monosacch. Oxidized at C6 are –uronic acids: See Fig. 7.9 2 Derivatives of Monosaccharides: Deoxy Sugars Deoxy Sugars – 1 or more hydroxyl groups replaced by hydrogens – DNAà 2-deoxy-D-ribose – Occur in glycoproteins and polysaccharides Derivatives of Monosaccharides: Amino Sugars Amino Sugars – Contain an amino group instead of –OH group – Large component of oligo- and polysaccharides (e.g. chitin) Derivatives of Monosaccharides: Phosphoprylation Phosphorylation - can form anhydride phosphoester bond. phosphorylation alters ionic character. AT –OH group. – Locks molecule in cell. – Nucleotides are phosphorylated (ATP, GTP…) Derivatives of Monosaccharides: A Few More Examples Sugar Alcohols (Alditols) – Prepared by mild reduction – Can’t cyclize – Sweeteners (xylitol—gum) Sugar Esters (phosphate esters) – Metabolic intermediates – Sugar moiety of ATP/GTPs Acetal/Ketal/Glycosides – Formed when the hemiacetal/hemiketal sugars react with alcohols Chemical Modifications When named, structures are considered to have their reducing ends on the right. Locate the reducing ends of the structures on the left if appropriate. • The configuration of the anomeric carbon joining the first monosaccharide unit to the second is given (reading left to right). • The non-reducing residue is named, and five-and six-membered ring structures are distinguished by using “furano” or “pyrano” prefixes. • The two carbons joined by the glycosidic bond are indicated in parentheses, with an arrow connecting the two numbers. • The second residue is then named. • If there are subsequent residues, the subsequent glycosidic bonds are described by the same conventions Non-reducing disaccharides are named as glycosides rather than glycoses. Note that a double-headed arrow is used to denote sugars that are joined by their anomeric carbons, AND, it is necessary to specifiy the stereochemistry at both anomeric carbons. 3 Oligosaccharides Disaccharides—2 monosaccharides linked by a glycosidic bond Important Disaccharides – sucrose = table sugar - glucose and fructose (alpha linkage) – lactose = milk sugar - galactose and glucose (beta linkage) Lactose intolerance: lack of enzyme to break the ß glycosidic linkage - leads to bloating cramps and diarrhea Important disaccharides: Maltose - malt sugar, from breakdown of starch - 2 glucoses Cellobiose - breakdown of cellulose 2 ß (1->4) glucose ß linkages serve as structural sugars, a linkages serve as storage sugars Glycosidic Bond Formation Glycosidic Linkages Most common linkages are 1à4 and 1à6, others possible Shorthand notation: Abbrev. for monosaccharide, α- or β- and appropriate #s of linked atoms (e.g Glcα1-6Glc) Functional Oligosaccharides: Antibiotics Polysaccharides (Glycans) Homopolysaccharides/homoglycans – Contain only one type of monosaccharide molecule (e.g. amylose, one of the main components of starch) Heteropolysaccharides – More than one kind of monosaccharide – Example: hyaluronic acid—connective tissue/extracellular matrix Polysaccharides Can Form Branched Structures Unique to polysaccharides—proteins and DNA are both linear polymers Starch: Energy Storage is Easier in Polymer Bulk Carbs stored as polysaccharides to reduce the osmotic pressure (which is dependent on # of total molecules)—in plants most common is STARCH (10-30% a-amylose, 90-70% amylopectin) Amylose is a linear polymer that forms helices! Animals store polysacch. Glycogen—highly branched and compact, found in liver and muscles Bacteria/yeast—Dextran (Glcα1à6Glc) Structural Polysaccharides Ex.: Cellulose (Glcβ1à4Glc)—most abundant natural polymer (found in plants) – Insoluble, highly organized – Not digestible by humans—only ruminant animals 4 Other Structural Polysaccharides Chitin – Found in shellfish exoskeletons, fungi cell walls – Also extended ribbon conformation • Can be in parallel (reducing ends packed together at one end) or anti-parallel • Chitin is a linear homopolysaccharide composed of N-acetylglucosamine residues in b linkages. • Chitin differs chemically from cellulose only in the acetylated amino substituent at carbon 2. • It forms extended fibers that are similar to those of cellulose, and is found principally in hard exoskeletons of arthropods. • One of the major structural differences between chitin and cellulose, is that naturally occuring cellulose is composed of strands that pack against each other in parallel (non-reducing ends are together at one end), whereas chitin occurs naturally in both parallel and antiparallel stacking arrangements Agarose – Cride preparation called agar in food production – From marine algae - Repeating units of arabinoase (galactose and anhydrous galactose) – Used for chromatographic separation of large biomolecules--DNA Peptidoglycans Provide Structure for Bacteria Cell Walls Protective peptide-polysaccharide layer – Gram-Positive: thick peptidoglycan layer (25 nm) – Gram-Negative: thinner peptidoglycan (2-3 nm) Peptidoglycans Provide Structure for Bacteria Cell Walls Glycoproteins Linked to hydroxyl groups of Ser, Thr or hydroxylysine (O-linked) Linked to amide nitrogen of Asn (N-linked) N-Linked: Calnexin/Calreticulin Cycle N-Linked: Protein Folding Assistance Glycans can alter protein solubility, charge, and mass Protect from proteolysis Co-translational modification promotes proper protein folding around glycosylation site (reduced degrees of freedom, conformational rigidity) O-Linked: Extracellular Rigidity and Cell Signaling Cell surface glycoproteins • Protect cell from unwanted interactions • Extracellular interactions/ signal transduction O-GlcNAc signaling alters transcription/translation, signal transduction, metabolism – Altered in cancer and diabetes Proteoglycans: Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) Proteins Vary widely in size and function Either soluble and in extracellular matrix, or integral membrane proteins Many GAGs have chondroitin sulfates—important for joint health Proteoglycans in Cartilage Proteoglycans confer both resilience and flexibility to our cartilage tissue – Hyaluronic acid binding domains – Proteoglycan-hyaluronic acid aggregates are highly hydrated When our joints are compressed, water is squeezed out, but thanks to these proteoglycan-hyaluronic acid aggregates, can be quickly reabsorbed Shock-absorber, and reduces friction 5 .

  • Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals
    Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals • Although, the open chain structures of monosaccharides are consistent with the chemistry of carbohydrates, in reality they are oversimplifications of the true structure of carbohydrates. • It is common knowledge that aldehydes react with alcohols to form hemiacetals. In cases where a molecule is a hydroxyaldehyde such as 4- hydroxybutanal or 5-hydroxypentanal, cyclic hemiacetals result. 9:47 AM 1 Structures of Monosaccharides Hemiacetals • Aldoses often contain an aldehyde group and several hydroxyl groups as part of the same molecule; they have a greater tendency of forming cyclic hemiacetals. In fact, in aqueous solution carbohydrates exist almost exclusively in the ring-closed form At equilibrium, the linear aldehyde or ketone structure represents less than 1% of the sugar present. • Five and six-membered rings are thermodynamically more stable than their corresponding four and seven membered rings, since they are less strained. • Five- (furanoses) and six-membered cyclic hemiacetals (pyranoses) are often more stable than their open-chain forms. In particular the six-membered rings which can adopt a chair conformation are 9:47 AM 2 essentially free from all types of strains. Structures of Monosaccharides Evidence for Existence of Monosacharides as Hemiacetals What physical, chemical and spectroscopic evidence support the existence of monosaccharide sugars as cyclic hemi-acetals. (a) Two anomers of glucose capable of existing independently with different physical (melting points and specific optical rotation) and chemical properties can be obtained by recrystallization. (b) the 1H-NMR and IR-spectra of solutions of pure sugars show the presence of mixtures (anomeric hemiacetals) and absence of an aldehydic peak is a sufficient indicator that the sugars exist in some other form other than the open-chain form.

  • Pentose PO4 Pathway, Fructose, Galactose Metabolism.Pptx
    Pentose PO4 pathway, Fructose, galactose metabolism The Entner Doudoroff pathway begins with hexokinase producing Glucose 6 PO4 , but produce only one ATP. This pathway prevalent in anaerobes such as Pseudomonas, they doe not have a Phosphofructokinase. The pentose phosphate pathway (also called the phosphogluconate pathway and the hexose monophosphate shunt) is a biochemical pathway parallel to glycolysis that generates NADPH and pentoses. While it does involve oxidation of glucose, its primary role is anabolic rather than catabolic. There are two distinct phases in the pathway. The first is the oxidative phase, in which NADPH is generated, and the second is the non-oxidative synthesis of 5-carbon sugars. For most organisms, the pentose phosphate pathway takes place in the cytosol. For each mole of glucose 6 PO4 metabolized to ribulose 5 PO4, 2 moles of NADPH are produced. 6-Phosphogluconate dh is not only an oxidation step but it’s also a decarboxylation reaction. The primary results of the pathway are: The generation of reducing equivalents, in the form of NADPH, used in reductive biosynthesis reactions within cells (e.g. fatty acid synthesis). Production of ribose-5-phosphate (R5P), used in the synthesis of nucleotides and nucleic acids. Production of erythrose-4-phosphate (E4P), used in the synthesis of aromatic amino acids. Transketolase and transaldolase reactions are similar in that they transfer between carbon chains, transketolases 2 carbon units or transaldolases 3 carbon units. Regulation; Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is the rate- controlling enzyme of this pathway. It is allosterically stimulated by NADP+. The ratio of NADPH:NADP+ is normally about 100:1 in liver cytosol.

  • Metabolism of Monosaccharides and Disaccharides Glucose Is the Most Common Monosaccharide Consumed by Humans
    Metabolism of Monosaccharides and disaccharides Glucose is the most common monosaccharide consumed by humans. Two other monosaccharides that occur in significant amounts in the diet are fructose and galactose. Galactose is an important component of cell structural carbohydrates. Catabolism of fructose and galactose are essential pathways of energy metabolism in the body (both illustrated with blue in the adjacent diagram). About 15-20% of calories in the diet are supplied by fructose (55 g/day). The major source of fructose is the disaccharide sucrose. Entry of fructose is not dependent on insulin. Galactose is an important component Of cell structural carbohydrates. Fructose needs to be phosphorylated to enter the pathway either by hexokinase or fructokinase. Hexokinase has low affinity towards fructose (high Km) therefore unless high concentrations of fructose exist very little fructose will be converted to Fructose 6-P. Fructokinase provides the main mechanism of phosphorylation to fructose 1-P, Fructose 1-P does not convert to Fructose 1,6 bisphosphate but is metabolized to Glyceraldehyde and DHAP by aldolase B. DHAP can enter glycolysis or gluconeogenesis while Glyceraldehyde can be metabolized by a number of pathways. The rate of fructose metabolism is more rapid than that of glucose because trioses formed from fructose 1-phosphate bypass PFK1, the rate limiting step in glycolisis. What disorders are associated with fructose metabolism? Where? First lets summarize the various routes of Fructose metabolism in the diagram. Disorders of fructose metabolism can result from excessive fructose consumption. An increase in fructose 1-P due to rapid phosphorylation. This accumulation leads to sequestering of phosphate (A & B).

  • Relationships Among Impurity Components, Sucrose, and Sugarbeet Processing Quality
    2 Journal of Sugar Beet Research Vol. 52 Nos. 1 & 2 Relationships Among Impurity Components, Sucrose, and Sugarbeet Processing Quality L. G. Campbell and K.K. Fugate USDA-ARS Northern Crop Science Laboratory, Fargo, ND 58102-2765 Corresponding author: Larry Campbell ([email protected]) DOI: 10.5274/jsbr.52.1.2 ABSTRACT Sodium, potassium, amino-nitrogen, and invert sugar are nat- urally-occurring constituents of the sugarbeet root, referred to as impurities, which impede sucrose extraction during rou- tine factory operations. Three germplasm lines selected for low sodium, potassium, or amino-nitrogen and a line selected for high amino-nitrogen concentration from the same parental population and two lines selected from another source, one for high and the other for low amino-nitrogen concentration, were the basis for examining relationships among the impurity components and between the impurity components and sucrose concentration, sucrose loss to mo- lasses, and sucrose extraction rate. Concentrations of the three impurity components were altered through selection; however, in no case did this result in a consistent significant increase in sucrose concentration or estimates of the propor- tion of the sucrose that would be extracted. Correlation analyses indicated a larger role for sodium than for potas- sium or amino-nitrogen in determining relative sucrose con- centration. Selection for low sodium concentration, however, did not increase the percent extractable sucrose, relative to the parental population. The probability of significant im- provement in the processing quality of elite germplasm by re- ducing the concentration of individual impurity components appears to be low, based upon the populations examined in this study.

    PEER-REVIEWED ARTICLE bioresources.com ADSORPTION OF CELLOBIOSE-PENDANT POLYMERS TO A CELLULOSE MATRIX DETERMINED BY QUARTZ CRYSTAL MICROBALANCE ANALYSIS Shingo Yokota,† Takefumi Ohta, Takuya Kitaoka,* and Hiroyuki Wariishi Cellobiose-pendant polymers were synthesized by radical polymerization and their affinity for a cellulose matrix was investigated by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). A 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethylureido cellobiose (MOU-Cel) macromer was synthesized by coupling cellobiosylamine with 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl isocyanate followed by polymerization in an aqueous radical reaction system. The interaction of the resulting poly(MOU-Cel) with a pure cellulose matrix in water was evaluated by QCM analysis. Poly(MOU-Cel) was strongly adsorbed to the cellulose substrate, whereas neither cellobiose nor MOU-Cel macromer exhibited an attractive interaction with cellulose. This specific interaction was not inhibited by the presence of ionic contaminants, suggesting that multiple cellobiopyranose moieties in each polymer molecule might cooperatively enhance its affinity for cellulose. Moderate insertion of acrylamide units into the polymer backbone improved the affinity for cellulose, possibly due to an increased mobility of sugar side chains. Polymers such as these, with a high affinity for cellulose, have potential applications for the surface functionalization of cellulose-based materials, including paper products.

For this purpose, the hydrolysis was performed through the direct addition of the fermented ESBPPs obtained by fungal solid-state fermentation (SSF) as an enzyme source. By directly using this fermented solid, the stages for enzyme extraction and purification were avoided. The effects of temperature, fermented to fresh solid ratio, supplementation of fermented ESBPP with commercial cellulase, and the use of high-solid fed-batch enzymatic hydrolysis were studied to obtain the maximum reducing sugar (RS) concentration and productivity. The highest RS concentration and productivity, 127.3 g L 1 and 24.3 g L 1 h 1 respectively, were obtained at 50 C · − · − · − ◦ and with an initial supplementation of 2.17 U of Celluclast® per gram of dried solid in fed-batch mode. This process was carried out with a liquid to solid ratio of 4.3 mL g 1 solid, by adding 15 g · − of fermented solid and 13.75 g of fresh solid at the beginning of the hydrolysis, and then the same amount of fresh solid 3 times every 2.5 h.
