Lec 11 Carb Digestion Flashcards
difference between aldose and ketose lies in the positions of the blank group
carbonyl
if carbonyl group is at edge or terminus of molecule it is a blank if it is in the middle of the molecule its a blank
aldose, ketose
D and L carbohydrates are called blank
enantiomers
when aldehyde group of d glucose undergoes aldose reductase it turns into blank
sorbitol
whats good about sorbitol
“sugar free” doesnt raise blood sugar, doesnt cause cavities
linear form of d glucose is blank
unstable
stable form of d glucose
ring
ring structure of glucose is called blank
alpha/beta d glucopyranose
alpha and beta isomers of glucopyranose are blank
anomers
beta d glucopyranose has C1 being blank
chiral (anomeric) (reducing)
fructofuranose has blank being the chiral/anomeric/reducing carbon
c2
lubricant of synovial fluid in joints
hyaluronan
hyaluronan is a blank derivative
glucose
lactose is a blank sugar because the blank end is free
reducing, reducing hydroxyl
sucrose is a blank sugar because the blank is not free
non reducing, reducing hydroxyl
starch digestion is accomplished by blank
salivary/pancreatic alpha amylase (endoglucosidase)
