Glycans that are conjugated to lipids or proteins play roles other than as energy store in cells. With use an example for each, suggest the cellular localizations of glycocolipids and glycoproteins and biological functions of the glycan moieties of these glycoconjugates.
Glucose has 70-75% the sweetening strength of table sugar (sucrose), but fructose is twice as sweet as sucrose. Thus, processes for the manufacture of fructose are of considerable value. Would base or enzyme catalyzed conversion of glucose to fructose be a better industrial process?
