monosaccharide

High fructose corn syrup, also used in processed foods, is a mixture of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose.

Fructose, a monosaccharide known as "fruit sugar," is a common dietary sugar found naturally in fruit, honey, and processed foods.

Alliums store their energy in polysaccharides, which are chains of monosaccharides, or simple sugars.

The final key component of Li and colleagues’ system is another hairpin DNA, which contains a complementary sequence to the monosaccharide code and a sequence that can displace the protein code from a double helix.

How NSTs recognize and transport activated monosaccharides, however, is currently unclear.
