Selaginella lepidophylla- a desert plant which can adapt to dehydrating condition by synthesizing trehalose,
and can resume normal metabolism when water is available-hence its nickname is “resurrection plant.

• Storage of metabolic fuel
• Structural framework of nucleic acids
• Structural elements in the cell walls of bacteria and plants
• Linked to proteins and lipids which are involved in cell recognition

Monosaccharides Stereoisomers
Carbohydrates contain many chiral carbons

Because of the tetrahedral nature of carbon bonds, pyranose sugars actually assume a "chair" or "boat" configuration, depending on the sugar.
The representation above reflects the chair configuration of the glucopyranose ring more accurately than the Haworth projection.

Fructose forms either
a 6-member pyranose ring, by reaction of the C2 keto group with the OH on C6, or

The formation of hemiketals and hemiacetals results in an asymmetric carbon atom.
Isomers that differ only in their configuration about the new asymmetric carbon are called anomers, the new assymetric carbon is called anomeric carbon.
a-anomer has the hydroxyl group at the right side of the anomeric carbon
-anomer has the hydroxyl group at the left side of the anomeric carbon
![Page 39: Carbohydrates 2011](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020919/547f3ccfb4af9fac608b4590/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Anomers in aqueous solution freely interconvert between the and forms, unless the hydroxyl group attached to the
anomeric carbon is linked to another molecule. This process of interconvertion is
called MUTAROTATION

CelluloseCellulose
• is a linear polysaccharide of D-glucose units joined by -1,4-glycosidic bonds
• it has an average molecular weight of 400,000 g/mol, corresponding to approximately 2200 glucose units per molecule
• cellulose molecules act like stiff rods and align themselves side by side into well-organized water-insoluble fibers in which the OH groups form numerous intermolecular hydrogen bonds
• this arrangement of parallel chains in bundles gives cellulose fibers their high mechanical strength
• it is also the reason why cellulose is insoluble in water

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are anionic polyanionic polysaccharides chains
made of repeating disaccharide units
• play important roles in the structure and function of connective tissues
• polysaccharides based on a repeating disaccharide where one of the monomers is an amino sugar and the other has a negative charge due to a sulfate or carboxylate group
• Glycosaminoglycans tend to be negatively charged, because of the prevalence of acidic groups.
• GAGs are usually attached to proteins to form proteoglycans
