Consider polysaccharides amylose and spartylose tarhylose

Reference no: EM13194684

Consider the four polysaccharides amylose, spartylose tarhylose and ranylose. Amylose is the unbranched polymer of a-(1Ã 4) linked glucose molecules found in starch, while spartylose, tarhylose and a Blue Devylosea have a-(1Ã 6) branches every 2, 5, and 10 glucose residues, respectively. If a single granule of each of these polysaccharides contains 100 glucose units, approximately how many free non-reducing ends will be present on each type of polysaccharide granule on average? Which polysaccharide would be broken down most readily and why?
