The Glycosidic Bond
Forming the glycosidic bond
-
To make monosaccharides more suitable for transport and storage, they are bonded together to form disaccharides and polysaccharides
-
Disaccharides and polysaccharides are formed when two hydroxyl (-OH) groups (on different saccharides) interact to form a strong covalent bond called the glycosidic bond (the oxygen link that holds the two molecules together)
-
Every glycosidic bond results in one water molecule being removed, thus glycosidic bonds are formed by condensation reactions
Breaking the glycosidic bond
-
The glycosidic bond is broken when water is added in a hydrolysis reaction
-
Disaccharides and polysaccharides are broken down in hydrolysis reactions
-
Hydrolytic reactions are catalysed by enzymes; these are different to those present in condensation reactions
-
-
Examples of hydrolytic reactions include the digestion of food in the alimentary tract and the breakdown of stored carbohydrates in muscle and liver cells for use in cellular respiration
Common disaccharides
-
Monosaccharides can join together via condensation reactions to form disaccharides
-
Common examples of disaccharides include:
-
maltose = the sugar formed in the production and breakdown of starch
-
sucrose = the main sugar produced in plants
-
lactose = a sugar found only in milk
-
|
Disaccharide |
Monosaccharides from which it is made |
|---|---|
|
Maltose |
glucose + glucose |
|
Sucrose |
glucose + fructose |
|
Lactose |
glucose + galactose |
Examiner Tips and Tricks
Make sure you can identify where the glycosidic bond is in a carbohydrate.
Remember that disaccharides hydrolyse to two monosaccharides, whereas polysaccharides must undergo many hydrolytic reactions until they form monosaccharides.
