include 1 oxygen atom in the ring so they are named after furan and pyran.

Anomeric Carbons: carbon atoms that are bonded to two different oxygen atoms in a carbohydrate The anomeric carbon gets the lowest possible number.

D-glucose D-glucose Are the anomeric carbons chiral?

Mutarotation: a pure form of an or β carbohydrate is converted to a mixture of the two forms
Point an arrow to the anomeric carbons in the structures above. Simple sugars are constantly converting back and forth from the open chain to the closed ring. The furanose and pyranose names are frequently omitted from the sugar name, because it is assumed that we all know sugars are primarily found in their cyclic form.

Modified Monosaccharides Ribose & Deoxyribose – These two sugars are found in biomolecules such as
ATP, coenzyme A, & nucleic acids (DNA & RNA).

Carbohydrates Part 2: Stereochemistry of Monosaccharides
Glyceraldehyde – the simplest sugar What is the relationship between the two possible structures for glyceraldehyde?
Note: 1) Most common sugars of biological significance have the D configuration. 2) Fischer Projections – another way to show stereochemistry
Star each chiral carbon in the following common sugars.
Enantiomers: non-superimposable mirror images Diastereomers: non-superimposable stereoisomers that are NOT mirror images
What is the relationship between the L & D isomers of fructose?
What is the relationship between D-glucose & D-galactose?
What is the relationship between D-glucose & D-fructose?
Carbohydrates Part 3: Disaccharides & Glycosidic Bonds
Glyco- is a prefix used to indicate the presence of sugars in biological molecules
Glycosidic bonds link monosaccharides into disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides or link saccharides to other biological molecules through their hydroxyl groups. Glycosidic bonds always form between the anomeric carbon of the sugar on the left and the hydroxyl group of another sugar or biological molecule on the right. Glycosidic bonds are classified by the configuration of the anomeric carbon (α or β) and the location of the other hydroxyl group.

Carbohydrates Part 4: Polysaccharides Polysaccharides are polymers containing > 100 monosaccharides. They are not soluble in water but their many hydroxyl groups become hydrated and form thick suspensions.
Important Polysaccharides to know
Starch & Glycogen vs Cellulose
Starch is comprised of amylose and amylopectin.
Carbohydrates Part 5: Catabolism Stage 1 (Hydrolysis) & Stage 2 (Glycolysis) An overview of catabolism Stage 1 - Hydrolysis
The 1st stage of carbohydrate catabolism is digestion – the breakdown into small molecules for energy production. Digestion begins in the mouth with the physical grinding, softening and mixing of food. Salivary α-amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of the glycosidic bonds in carbohydrates. α-amylase is denatured in the stomach. Further digestion occurs in the small intestine where additional α-amylase is secreted by the pancreas along with maltase, sucrase and lactase from the mucous lining of the small intestine.
Stage 2 – Glycolysis
The conversion of glucose to pyruvate. Stage 3 – Acetyl CoA enters Citric Acid Cycle to produce CO2 & reduced coenzymes.
The reduced coenzymes transport the electrons to the electron transport chain (ETC) which ultimately reduces O2 to H2O and drives the formation of ATP from ADP & P1 in a process known as oxidative phosphorylation.

Stage 2 - Glycolysis Look through the sequence of reactions in glycolysis and classify the enzymes (Hydrolase, Lyase, Ligase, Transferase, Isomerase, or Oxidoreductase) needed to catalyze each reaction.

Fate of Pyruvate
A lack of oxygen will slow down electron transport, causing a build-up of NADH and decreasing the amount of NAD+ available for glycolysis. If there is no NAD+, glycolysis cannot continue. The reduction of pyruvate to lactate will generate the NAD+ needed for glycolysis (step 6).
Tissues with low oxygen content (such as skeletal muscle) rely on anerobic production of ATP by glycolysis. Some bacteria can convert pyruvate to lactate under anaerobic conditions. The preparation of kimchee, sauerkraut, and yogurt involve these types of bacteria. Yeast converts pyruvate to ethanol and CO2 under anaerobic conditions.
In the mitochondrial matrix, pyruvate is oxidized to form carbon dioxide and an acetyl group (acetyl–CoA).
Pyruvate must diffuse into the mitochondria from the cytosol. It is then transported by a membrane protein across the inner mitochondrial membrane into the matrix.
What happens to the acetyl-CoA?
Carbohydrates Part 6: Other Metabolic roles of Glucose & Ketone Bodies
Glycogenesis: synthesis of glycogen from glucose Glycogenolysis: Degradation of glycogen to produce glucose Gluconeogenesis: Breakdown of proteins; in the liver, formation of
glucose from amino acids Glycolysis: breakdown of glucose to pyruvate Regulation of Glucose Metabolism and Energy Production
Two hormones secreted by the pancreas play a major role in glucose metabolism.

Metabolism during Fasting or Starving
Gradual decline in blood glucose triggers the catabolism of lipids causing a build-up of acetyl CoA.
Ketone bodies form from the excess acetyl CoA. (see rxn below) Brain and other tissues catabolize ketone bodies to produce ATP.
Diabetes Mellitus - glucose cannot be utilized or stored as glycogen because insulin is not secreted or does not function properly, therefore, insufficient amounts of glucose are present in tissues. Liver cells synthesize glucose from non-carbohydrate sources (gluconeogenesis) and break down fat. Acetyl-CoA builds up and ketone bodies accumulate (ketosis). Glucose appears in the urine because it is not undergoing glycolysis. Formation of Ketone Bodies from Acetyl CoA
If the concentration of ketone bodies becomes too high, as can happen in diabetics or on a very low carbohydrate diet, a condition called ketoacidosis can result. Since the ketone bodies are not completely metabolized, acetone can diffuse out of the bloodstream into air in the lungs. The acetone can be smelled on the breath. Also, since ketone bodies acetoacetate and β-hydroxybutyrate are acidic, the pH of the blood decreases. This affects the ability of the hemoglobin to carry oxygen – breathing can become difficult. Untreated, ketoacidosis can lead to coma or death.
