Carbohydrates: Carbohydrate and Glycogen Metabolism Flashcards
CHO cell membrane molecules
glycolipids-
Oligosaccharides
CHO cell membrane molecules and extra cellular molecules
glycoproteins- Oligosaccharides
Short, non-repetitive complex carbs
oligosaccharides
Large repetitive carbs
polysaccharides
Large, repetitive carbohydrate usually attached to a protein core and found in extracellular and cell membrane molecules
glycosaminoglycans
Main plant based dietary carb
starch- glucose polymer
glucose polymer with a(1-4) and a(1-6) bonds
glycogen
amylopectin bonds
a(1-4) and a(1-6) bonds
Amylose bonds
a(1-4)
Milk sugar bonds
lactose- galactosyl-B(1-4)-glucose
Cellulose bond
B(1-4)
digestion of dietary carbs start in mouth by
salivary a-amylase
epithelial brush border enzymes
degrade oligosaccharides into monosaccharides
The digestion of starch continues in the intestine
Digestion by pancreatic enzyme
Digestion by enzymes of intestinal cells
pancreas secrete this in the lumen of the SI, and cleaves a(1-4) linkage
pancreatic a-amylase
Major Carb products that enter the stomach
dexterins
dextrins are
linear branched oligosaccharides
Products of pancreatic a-amylase
disaccharides: maltose, isomaltase
trisaccharides
Small oligosaccharides containing a-1,4 and a-1,6 linkages
Sucrase, lactase, isomaltase and glucomylase are produced in —- and located in —-
AKA- Complexes of enzymes- produced by intestinal epithelial cell and located in their brush border
Converts sucrose to glucose and fructose
sucrase
is an example of B-galactosidase
lactase
Latase (B-galactosidase) converts
lactose to glucose and galactose
cleaves a-1,6 linkages and releases glucose residues from branched oligosaccharides
isomaltase
Glucoamylase is an example of
a-glucosidase
