DIsaccharides Flashcards
What are the disaccharides?
Maltose Isomaltose Cellobiose Lactose Sucrose
Disaccharides?
two monosaccharides residues linked by glycosidic bond
anomeric forms- alpha or beta
repeating units of polysaccharides
Maltose
repeating disacch unit of starch
2 glucose residues linked by alpha 1, 4 glycosidic bond
glucose glucosidase
beta anomeric form predominates in nature
exhibits mutarotation
reducing sugar
fermented by ordinary bakers yeast
digested by maltose in small intestines
Isomaltose
disacch unit in the branching points of amylopectin, glycogen, and dextran
2 glucose units inked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic bond
hydrolyzed by oligo-1,6 glycosides or isolates in small intestines
2 glucose units linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic bond
hydrolyzed by oligo-1,6 glycosides or isolates in small intestines

maltose and lactose
cellobiose
repeating disacch of cellulose
2 glucose residues linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic bond
has no digestive enzyme that can hydrolyze the B glycosidic bond
2 glucose residues linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic bond
