Example types with monosaccharides
The same corpus examples are grouped by length and sentence type, making it easier to see the contexts in which the word appears:
Assimilation Digestion involves breakdown to the monosaccharides. (7 words)
Like monosaccharides, disaccharides are soluble in water. (7 words)
Monosaccharides are also called "simple sugars," the most important being glucose. (11 words)
Through photosynthesis, plants produce glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), a phosphated 3-carbon sugar that is used by the cell to make monosaccharides such as glucose ( Cmain Hmain Omain ) or (as in cane and beet) sucrose ( Cmain Hmain Omain ). (38 words)
Analogous to the above reactions, the glucose produced can then undergo glycolysis in tissues that need energy, be stored as glycogen (or starch in plants), or be converted to other monosaccharides or joined into di- or oligosaccharides. (37 words)
Glycolysis Glucose metabolism and various forms of it in the process Glucose-containing compounds and isomeric forms are digested and taken up by the body in the intestines, including starch, glycogen, disaccharides and monosaccharides. (34 words)
Example sentences (19)
After digestion and absorption the principal monosaccharides present in the blood and internal tissues include glucose, fructose, and galactose.
A more general nomenclature for open-chain monosaccharides combines a Greek prefix to indicate the number of carbons (tri-, tetr-, pent-, hex-, etc.) with the suffixes "-ose" for aldoses and "-ulose" for ketoses.
Analogous to the above reactions, the glucose produced can then undergo glycolysis in tissues that need energy, be stored as glycogen (or starch in plants), or be converted to other monosaccharides or joined into di- or oligosaccharides.
Assimilation Digestion involves breakdown to the monosaccharides.
D- and L-glucose The D - and L - prefixes are also used with other monosaccharides, to distinguish two particular stereoisomers that are mirror-images of each other.
Disaccharides like lactose or sucrose are cleaved into their two component monosaccharides.
For many monosaccharides (including glucose), the cyclic forms predominate, in the solid state and in solutions, and therefore the same name commonly is used for the open- and closed-chain isomers.
Glycolysis Glucose metabolism and various forms of it in the process Glucose-containing compounds and isomeric forms are digested and taken up by the body in the intestines, including starch, glycogen, disaccharides and monosaccharides.
In this step, oligosaccharides (not monosaccharides as in step 3) are added, and then the procollagen is packaged into a secretory vesicle destined for the extracellular space.
Like monosaccharides, disaccharides are soluble in water.
Many different units (individual monosaccharides ) can be used, and bonded in different ways.
Many organisms also have the ability to metabolize other monosaccharides and disaccharides but glucose is often metabolized first.
Monosaccharides are also called "simple sugars," the most important being glucose.
Monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides contain one, two, and three or more sugar units, respectively.
Monosaccharides with four or more carbons may contain multiple chiral carbons, so they typically have more than two stereoisomers.
Natural saccharides are generally of simple carbohydrates called monosaccharides with general formula (CH 2 O) n where n is three or more.
Other monosaccharides like galactose and fructose can be converted into intermediates of the glycolytic pathway.
Through photosynthesis, plants produce glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), a phosphated 3-carbon sugar that is used by the cell to make monosaccharides such as glucose ( Cmain Hmain Omain ) or (as in cane and beet) sucrose ( Cmain Hmain Omain ).
When a few (around three to six) monosaccharides are joined, it is called an oligosaccharide (oligo- meaning "few").
