Descriptor azúcares
Entry term(s) azúcar
Scope note: Moléculas de hidratos de carbono de cadena corta con grupos hidroxilo unidos a cada átomo de carbono excepto uno que presenta un oxígeno aldehídico o cetónico unido por un doble enlace. Las moléculas cíclicas de azúcar se forman cuando los grupos aldehído o cetona forman un puente hemiacetal o hemicetal con uno de los carbonos hidroxilo. La estructura tridimensional de la molécula de azúcar se presenta en una amplia gama de compuestos biológicos y sintéticos, como en AMINOAZÚCARES, CARBA-AZÚCARES, DESOXIAZÚCARES, AZÚCARES ÁCIDOS, ALCOHOLES DEL AZÚCAR y FOSFATOS DE AZÚCAR.

Scope note: Short chain carbohydrate molecules that have hydroxyl groups attached to each carbon atom unit with the exception of one carbon that has a doubly-bond aldehyde or ketone oxygen. Cyclical sugar molecules are formed when the aldehyde or ketone groups respectively form a hemiacetal or hemiketal bond with one of the hydroxyl carbons. The three dimensional structure of the sugar molecule occurs in a vast array of biological and synthetic classes of specialized compounds including AMINO SUGARS; CARBASUGARS; DEOXY SUGARS; SUGAR ACIDS; SUGAR ALCOHOLS; and SUGAR PHOSPHATES.
