Haworth drew the ring as a flat hexagon with groups above and below the plane of the ring – the Haworth projection. [3] A further refinement to the conformation of pyranose rings came when Sponsler and Dore (1926) realized that Sachse's mathematical treatment of six-membered rings could be applied to their X-ray structure of cellulose.

Ribose can either be a five membered ring or a six membered ring . The furanose form is more useful for cells, as it can be used in other reactions. For most cells, ribose is transported into the cell in the pyranose form. With this said, D-Ribose Pyranase needs to be present to convert the pyranose form into the furanose form.
Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system built around user-generated content and games, [1] [2] officially referred to as "experiences". [3] Games can be created by any user through the platform's game engine, Roblox Studio, [4] and then shared to and played by other players. [1]
The α- and β-anomers of D-glucopyranose.. In organic chemistry, the anomeric effect or Edward-Lemieux effect (after J. T. Edward and Raymond Lemieux) is a stereoelectronic effect that describes the tendency of heteroatomic substituents adjacent to the heteroatom in the ring in, e.g., tetrahydropyran to prefer the axial orientation instead of the less-hindered equatorial orientation that ...
Depending on the configuration at C-1, there are two anomers of glucuronic acid, α- and β-form. In β-D-glucuronic acid the C-1 hydroxy group is on the same side of the pyranose ring as the carboxyl group. In the free sugar acid, the β-form is prevalent (~64%), whereas in the organism, the α-form UDP-α-D-glucuronic acid (UDPGA) predominates.
The reaction turns the =O group into a hydroxyl, and the hydroxyl into an ether bridge (−O−) between the two carbon atoms, thus creating a ring with one oxygen atom and four or five carbons. If the cycle has five carbon atoms (six atoms in total), the closed form is called a pyranose, after the cyclic ether tetrahydropyran, that has the ...
The furanose ring will have either alpha or beta configuration, depending on which direction the anomeric hydroxy group is pointing. In a d-configuration furanose, alpha configuration has the hydroxy pointing down, and beta has the hydroxy pointing up. It is the opposite in an l-configuration furanose.
