Chapter 22, Problem 22.30P

Glucosamine is a dietry supplement available in many over-the-counter treatments for osteoarthritis. Reaction of acetyl CoA with glucosamine forms NAG, N-acetylglucosamine the monomer used to form chitin, the carbohydrate that forms the rigid shells of lobsters and crabs. What is the structure of NAG?

d-Glucuronic acid is found widely in plants and animals. One of its functions is to detoxify poisonous HO-containing compounds by reacting with them inthe liver to form glucuronides. Glucuronides are water soluble and, therefore, readily excreted. After ingestion of a poison such as turpentine or phenol, theglucuronides of these compounds are found in urine. Draw the structure of the glucuronide formed by the reaction of β-d-glucuronic acid and phenol.
a. (S)-Penicillamine, an amino acid that does not occur in proteins, is used as a copper chelating agent to treat Wilson's disease, an inherited defect in copper metabolism. (R)-Penicillamine is toxic, sometimes causing blindness. Draw the structures of (R)- and (S)- penicillamine. b. What disulfide is formed from oxidation of (S)-penicillamine?
