Polysaccharides
Manuel Padilla, Fermín Serra Vázquez and
Juan Pablo Uva
General formula
Cx(H2O)y
X = Between 200 and 2500
Primary Roles
Cellular support
While enzymes work on
monosaccharides producing energy,
polysaccharides usually fold
together concentrating big amounts
of enzymes in a very small place.
Also, as they are hydrophobic, they
can take in more sugar.
A polysaccharide can be mixed with
any number of other components to
create tissues that are more rigid,
less rigid, or even materials with
special properties. Polysaccharides
protect almost every type of cell, or
example: Cellulose is a
polysaccharide that protects all
plant cells as a cell wall
Storage of energy
Monomers and
polymers
The monomers of polysaccharides are monosaccharides, while
the polymers are polysaccharides
How are the monomers
bonded together?
Glycosidic bonds
All polysaccharides are formed by the same basic process: monosaccharides
are connected through glycosidic bonds. When in a polysaccharide, individual
monosaccharides are known as residues. Depending on the polysaccharide,
any combination of them can be combined in series.
Examples
Glycogen and starch
Cellulose can be found on all plant
cells as the cell wall
Glycogen and starch is produced by
all plants and animals
Cellulose
