Carbohydrates of Physiologic
Significance
CARBOHYDRATES ARE ALDEHYDE OR KETONE DERIVATIVES OF
POLYHYDRIC ALCOHOLS
(1) Monosaccharides are those carbohydrates that cannot be hydrolyzed into simpler
carbohydrates: They may be classified as trioses, tetroses, pentoses, hexoses, or heptoses,
depending upon the number of carbon atoms; and as aldoses or ketoses depending upon
whether they have an aldehyde or ketone group. Examples are listed in Table 13–1.
(2) Disaccharides are condensation products of two monosaccharide units. Examples are
maltose and sucrose.
(3) Oligosaccharides are condensation products of two to ten monosaccharides; maltotriose*
is an example.
(4) Polysaccharides are condensation products of more than ten monosaccharide units;
examples are the starches and dextrins, which may be linear or branched
polymers. Polysaccharides are sometimes classified as hexosans or pentosans, depending upon
the identity of the constituent monosaccharides

Glycosaminoglycans (mucopolysaccharides) are complex carbohydrates
characterized by their content of amino sugars and uronic acids.
When these chains are attached to a protein molecule, the result is a
proteoglycan.
Proteoglycans provide the ground or packing substance of connective tissues.

Carbohydrates Can Be Linked to Proteins Through
Asparagine (N-Linked) or Through Serine or Threonine (OLinked) Residues

Lipids of Physiologic Significance
(1) relatively insoluble in water and
(2) soluble in nonpolar solvents such as ether
and chloroform.
LIPIDS ARE CLASSIFIED AS SIMPLE
OR COMPLEX
Fatty Acids Are Named After Corresponding
Hydrocarbons
Saturated Fatty Acids Contain No Double
Bonds
Unsaturated Fatty Acids Contain One or
More Double Bonds
Fatty acids may be further subdivided as follows:
(1) Monounsaturated (monoethenoid, monoenoic) acids, containing one
double bond.
(2) Polyunsaturated (polyethenoid, polyenoic) acids, containing two or more
double bonds.
(3) Eicosanoids: These compounds, derived from eicosa- (20-carbon)
polyenoic fatty acids, comprise the prostanoids, leukotrienes (LTs), and
lipoxins (LXs). Prostanoids include prostaglandins (PGs), prostacyclins
(PGIs), and thromboxanes (TXs).
The General Structure of Fatty Acids

The general structure of a fatty acid is a
long hydrocarbon chain with a carboxyl
group on carbon 1 (C1).

Differences in the
length and degree of

acids affect their
ability to pack
& hence the fluidity
of the bilayer

Structures of

sphingolipids:
Gangliosides are
just cerebrosides
with NANA (sialic
acid) attached!
Gangliosides
•Gangliosides are the most complex sphingolipids.
•These are carbohydrate-rich sphingolipids that contain at least one acidic sugar.
•Ganliosides are synthesized by the ordered, step-wise addition of sugar residues
to ceramide.
•Synthesis of these complex lipids requires activated sugars (e.g. UDP-glucose,
•UDP-galactose, UDP-N-acetylneuraminate…)
•This is just one example, more than 60 different gangliosides have been characterized.

cyclooxygenase

Mammals have two isozymes of
cyclooxygenase -- COX-1 & COX-2. The
prostaglandins produced by COX-1
participate in “house-keeping” functions
such as secretion of gastric mucin;
those produced by COX-2 play roles in
inflamation.
Aspirin, ibuprofin and acetaminophen
(nonsteroidal anti-inflamatory drugs,
NSAIDS) block prostaglandin synthesis
by inhibiting cyclooxygenase.
