INTRODUCTION
-The names come from the term “ hydrate of carbon ”
- A class of compounds that contained carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (C, H, O).
-Also called saccharides the most abundant class of biological molecules on Earth
-Much of it is produced by photosynthetic organisms including bacteria, algae, plants.. (however, all organisms can synthesize carbohydrate)
- FUNCTION act as energy storage molecules (in both animal and plants)

sugar phosphates1
5.2 DERIVATIVES OF MONOSACCHARIDES
In the synthesis and metabolism of carbohydrates, the intermediates are very often not the sugars themselves but their phosphorylated derivatives (sugar phosphate)
HOW ??
By condensation of phosphoric acid with one of the hydroxyl groups (-OH) of a sugar forms a phosphate ester (e.g. glucose 6-phosphate)
AS A RESULT..
Sugar phosphate relatively stable at neutral pH
bear a negative charge
EFFECT OF SUGAR PHOSPHORYLATION WITHIN CELLS
to trap the sugars inside the cells (most of the cells do not have plasma membrane transporters for phosphorylated sugars)
activates sugars for subsequent chemical transformation20

Amylose
• consist typically of 200 to 20,000 glucose units which form a helix as a result of the bond angles between the glucose units

![Page 37: “ CHAPTER 5 “ … CARBOHYDRATE… 1. INTRODUCTION -The names come from the term “ hydrate of carbon ” - A class of compounds that contained carbon, hydrogen](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebd5503460f94bc5d64/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Amylopectin• differs from amylose in being highly branched.
• Short side chains of about 30 glucose units are attached with 1α→6 linkages approximately every twenty to thirty glucose units along the chain.
• molecules may contain up to two million glucose units.
Amylopectin

![Page 38: “ CHAPTER 5 “ … CARBOHYDRATE… 1. INTRODUCTION -The names come from the term “ hydrate of carbon ” - A class of compounds that contained carbon, hydrogen](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebd5503460f94bc5d64/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• These polysaccharides, when hydrolysed will yield the constituent simple sugars.
• The simple sugars can then be bioprocessed to form other products. Some of these products and applications are:
– alternative fuels such as ethanol, methane – starch-based adhesives, agrochemicals (starch encapsulation
agents for pesticides)– cosmetics and toiletries (sorbitol in toothpaste– biodegradable detergents – paper making additives– pharmaceuticals – glucose hydrolysates or their derivatives as fermentation substrate
in order to produce several active compounds (i.e. vitamins, antibiotics and hormones)

• Inulin from chicory is used as a substrate for pharmaceuticals preparation as it displays beneficial effects on kidney functions
• Starch may also be used for binding, coating and dusting tablets
• Food applications - to stabilise aromas, to remove bitterness from citrus fruits, to trap cholesterol in the process of making lignified butter
• Paints - native starch from potato, maize and wheat can replace up to 25% of the petroleum-based monomer in paint
• Textile - potato starch is used for sizing, cereal starch for printing, dextrins and degraded starches are used for printing
• Water purification - starch-based products acts as coagulants and to aid flocculants in the water treatment industry
• Biodegradable plastics - as adjunct in conventional plastics (6% starch), blended with synthetic polymers (60- 75% starch), as a thermoplastic (75 – 95% starch).
