Title: Orgainic/inorganic pg. 14 sg
1Orgainic/inorganic pg. 14 sg
- Some cpds which contain carbon are inorganic.
- Examples include carbon dioxide, carbonates,
and hydrogen carbonates. - All cpds which contain no carbon are inorganic
- Three types of organic cpds are found in living
things, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids
2Structure
3- Carbon atoms can share electrons -notable being
other carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms and oxygen
atoms. - The simplest organic molecules are defined as
being comprised of only carbon and hydrogen
hydrocarbons
4- Hydrocarbons are non-polar, hydrophobic
compounds. (water hating) - Compounds that have no charges on them will not
mix with polar water.
5- Hydrophilic comes from the Latin roots "hydro"
(water) and "philia" (love). - Compounds are polar, and so dissolve easily in
the polar solvent water.
6- Structural formulas of some simple hydrocarbons.
- Methane CH4
7Hydrocarbons
- A simple chain of carbons with its full
complement of hydrogens is said to be saturated. - known as alkanes.
- name ends with 'ane'.
8- Hydrocarbons with double bonds in them are said
to be unsaturated. - contain at least one double bond.
- Alkenes
9Branching chains
- Sometimes two hydrocarbon molecules can have the
same numbers of the same atoms but have different
arrangements of these atoms. We say they are
isomers.
10Role of hydrocarbons in fats
- A fat molecule consists of a small, non
hydrocarbon component joined to three hydrocarbon
tails. The tails can be broken down to provide
energy. Mammalian adipose cells stockpile fat.
11Functional Groups Parts of the molecules of life.
- Part of your homework tonight is to go to this
web site Building Biomolecules The Functional
Groups - Review each of the functional groups and do the
self quiz.
12Functional groups
13Adenosine triphosphate or ATP
14(No Transcript)
15Phosphate groups
- In biology this is an important group found in
ATP.
16- Structurally, ATP consists of the adenine
nucleotide (ribose sugar, adenine base, and
phosphate group, PO4-2) plus two other phosphate
groups.
17Exergonic / Endergonic Reactions
- Energy releasing processes, ones that "generate"
energy, are termed exergonic reactions. - Reactions that require energy to initiate the
reaction are known as endergonic reactions
18ATP The primary energy transferring molecule in
cells
19Macromolecules page 15sg
- Monomers make polymers. Polymers are long
molecules consisting of many similar or identical
building blocks linked by covalent bonds.
20Condensation Reaction
- Monomers are connected by a reaction in which two
molecules are covalently bonded to each other
through loss of a water molecule, also known as
condensation reaction (also called dehydration
synthesis . - Dehydration Synthesis-Hydrolysis
21Hydrolysis
- Means - to break with water. Bonds between
monomers are broken by the addition of water
molecules, a hydrogen from the water attaching to
one monomer and a hydroxyl group attaching to the
adjacent monomer. This occurs in the digestive
tract. Dehydration Synthesis-Hydrolysis - Biology I Interactive Animations (go to
biochemistry section)
22Carbohydrates fuel and building molecules pg 15
sg
- Carbohydrates have the general molecular formula
CH2O - The simplest CHO are monosaccarides.
- Disaccharides are double sugars (formed by
dehydration synthesis) - Polysaccharides are made of many sugars
23Monosaccharides
- Glucose is the most common monosaccharide and is
vital to life - Three common sugars share the same molecular
formula C6H12O6. Because of their six carbon
atoms, each is a hexose.
24Name 2 monosaccharides p 15 sg
- Glucose
- Fructose
- Galactose
- Ribose
25Glucose has the trademarks of a sugar pg 14 sg
- A hydroxyl group is attached to each carbon
except one, here you find a double bond to oxygen - Used as major nrg source for cells
- (2.2.8)
26Glucose comes in different shapes
27Draw the ring structures of glucose and ribose pg
14 sg
28- Most names for sugars end in ose
- In aqueous solutions, glucose molecules as well
as most other sugars, form rings.
29Disaccharide
- Consists of two monosaccharides joined together
by a glycosidic linkage, a covalent bond formed
during dehydration reactions Dehydration
Synthesis-Hydrolysis (go to carbohydrate
synthesis)
30Common Disaccharides (name two disaccharides) pg
15 sg
31Storage Polysaccharides
- Starch is a common PolySac of plants. Consisting
of glucose molecules
32Glycogen another storage molecule
- Stored mainly in liver and muscle, hydrolysis of
glycogen releases glucose
33Storage of starch in plants
- Plants store starch as granules within cellular
structures called plastids inside the
chloroplasts
34Another structural poly sac is cellulose sg 15
- Found in plant cell walls- structural support
35- Due to the distinctive structures of starch and
cellulose, cellulose is indigestible to humans . - While cellulose is not a nutrient for humans it
remains as an important fiber.
36Yet another structural poly sac
- Chitin used by arthropods (insects, spiders,
crustaceans to form exoskeleton, also found in
cell wall of fungi)
37- Tutorial 3.2 Macromolecules ( ann go to
animations, then cho )
38Lipids- Diverse hydrophobic molecules pg 15 sg
- Fat molecules are made up of four parts
- a molecule of glycerol (on the right) and
- three molecules of fatty acids.
39Structure of Fatty Acid
- Has a long carbon chain, at one end is a carboxyl
group. Attached to this is a long hydrocarbon
tail. The non polar C-H bond in the tails make
them hydrophobic
40The glycerol and fatty acid join
- One molecule of water is removed for each fatty
acid joined to the glycerol. - This results in a ester linkage.
41Saturated Fatty Acid
- Contain the maximum possible amount of hydrogens,
thus saturated fats. The hydrocarbon chains in
these fatty acids are, fairly straight and can
pack closely together, making these fats solid at
room temperature.
42Unsaturated Fatty Acid
- some of the carbons share double bonds, theyre
not bonded to as many hydrogens as they could if
they werent double. Therefore these oils are
called unsaturated fats. They remain liquid
43Look at the difference
44Function of fats pag 15 sg
- energy storage molecules Fats possess more energy
per molecule and less hydration compared with
carbohydrates, resulting in fats possessing much
more energy stored per unit mass or volume fats
have 9cal/gram CHO and proteins have 4 cal/gram - Stored as fats in animals and oils in plants
- In animals such as ourselves, fats are stored in
adipose cells - Buoyancy lipids are less dense than water
allowing animals to float
45Phospholipids
- Major component of cell membranes
- Structure Phospholipids are made from glycerol,
two fatty acids, and (in place of the third fatty
acid) a phosphate group - The hydrocarbon tails of the fatty acids are
hydrophobic - the phosphate group end of the molecule is
hydrophilic because of the oxygens with all of
their pairs of unshared electrons. - This means that phospholipids are soluble in both
water and oil.
46- Phospholipids have the special property of having
both hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts - A molecule that is both hydrophilic and
hydrophobic is called amphipathic.
47Structure of phospholipids
48Function of Phospholipids
- Found in cell membranes. Act as barrier .
- When phospholipids are added to water they self
assemble, with hydrophobic parts inward and
hydrophilic parts outward. - http//telstar.ote.cmu.edu/Hughes/tutorial/cellmem
branes/orient2.swf
49Another group of lipids are Steroids
- A lipid characterized by a carbon skeleton
consisting of four fused rings. One common
steroid is cholesterol. - Many hormones are steroids, including sex hormones
50- Tutorial 3.2 Macromolecules ( ann go to
animations then to lipids)
51Proteins
- Proteins are a major constituent of most cells
(gt50 dry weight) - All proteins consist of polymers that are folded
into specific conformations - This conformation plus the chemistry of
well-placed functional groups control a protein's
function (another example of function follows
form) - Proteins are made up of 20 different types of
amino-acid monomers
52Polymers of amino acids are called peptides pg 14
sg
- Remember the structure of an amino acid. Carboxyl
and amino group. A protein consists of polymers
of amino acids, folded and coiled into a specific
configuration.
53- The side group determines characteristics, making
it hydrophobic or hydrophilic, acidic or basic.
54Coming together to make a peptide bond.
- amino acid basics
- Animation of Peptide Bond Formation
- Animation - Amino acid condensation
- The carboxyl group of one is adjacent to the
amino group of the other, an enzyme can join the
amino acids by dehydration reaction.
55Several function of proteins. Pg 68 sg
- Structural proteins act as support. Examples
include the silk fibers of spiders and insects,
collagen in animal connective tissue, and keratin
found in hair, horns, feathers.
56Storage proteins
- Storage of amino acids. Examples are egg whites,
casein, found in milk, and plants have storage
proteins in their seeds.
57Transport proteins
- Transport of other substances, Hemoglobin is an
example, transporting oxygen from the lungs to
other parts of the body. McGraw-Hill Online
Learning Center TestltBLURTgt
58Hormonal Proteins
- They perform by coordinating of an organism's
activities. An example is insulin.
59Movement Proteins
- Used for movement. Examples are actin and myosin
found in muscle tissue.
60Defensive Proteins
- Protection from disease. Antibodies are an
exampe.
61Enzymatic Proteins
- Selective acceleration of chemical reactions. We
will be discussing enzymes in detail later.
62A proteins function depends on its conformation.
- A polypeptide is not the same as a protein.
- The chain of amino acids known as a polypeptide
must be twisted and folded. - Most proteins are globular (roughly spherical)
others are fibrous in shape.
63Shape is everything
- In order for a protein to function properly it
must be able to be recognized and fit properly to
another molecule. (This is important to remember
when we speak of enzymes)
64Polar and non polar amino acids (aa) pg 68 sg
- Polar aa have hydrophilic R groups
- Found on surface of proteins make them water
soluble - Make channels for hydrophilic substances
- Positive charged R groups allow ions through
- Positive charged R groups allow ions through
- Integral or transmembrane proteins
65- Transmembrane protein p 68sg
66Non polar aa/pg 68
- In center of water soluble proteins stabilize
structure
- Remain embedded
- Peripheral proteins
67A proteins function depends on its conformation.
Pg 66 sg
- A polypeptide is not the same as a protein.
- The chain of amino acids known as a polypeptide
must be twisted and folded. - Most proteins are globular (roughly spherical)
others are fibrous in shape.
682 types you need to know pg. 66sg

feathers, actin and mysin in muscle tissues and
fibrinogen needed for blood clots.
70Four levels of protein structure all driven by
chemical bonds/67 sg
- Primary structure determined by base structure
of the gene that codes fro the polypeptide. - A chain of amino acids
71Secondary Structure p 6667
- Regular repeating structure including beta
sheets, and alpha helices stabilized by hydrogen
bonds between groups in the main chain of the
polypeptide.
72Two types of secondary structure
- Alpha - Helix the first structure. It has a rod
shape. The peptide is coiled around an imaginary
cylinder and stabilized by hydrogen bonds formed
between components of the peptide bonds
73The second type
- Beta - pleated sheets the amino acids adopt the
conformation of a sheet of paper and the
structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonds between
amino acids in different polypeptide strands.
74Lyzozyme
75Tertiary structure pg 67
