Metabolic Pathway of Energy Use : Polysaccharide Biosynthesis


 

Glucose (and other simple sugars - monosaccharides) may be synthesized from intermediates in glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.  Monosaccharides can be linked together to make polysaccharides.

Glycogen is formed from ADPG (ATP + glucose 6-phosphate = adenosine diphosphoglucose) in bacteria and from UDPG in animals (UTP + glucose 6-phosphate = uridine diphosphoglucose).

UDPNAc is the starting material for the biosynthesis of peptidoglycan (UTP + fructose 6-phosphate = UDP-N-acetylglucosamine).
