BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Chapter 2 – Part 2 CP Biology Paul VI Catholic High School
2
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY C, H, O, & N comprise 96% livingmatter Organic compounds - carbon based compounds Carbon atom - four valence electrons four covalent bonds able to form rings System/rules for naming
3
ORGANIC MOLECULES BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
4
BENZENE
5
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY MACROMOLECULES Formed by polymerization Anabolic reactions (building) Require energy input Dehydration synthesis Degraded by: Catabolic reactions (breaking down) Release energy Hydrolytic reactions (Hydrolysis)
6
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
8
The Four Groups of Organic Molecules in living things: CARBOHYDRATES LIPIDS PROTEINS NUCLEIC ACIDS
9
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY CARBOHYDRATES: Contain C, H, O 1:2:1 Ratio formula C n H 2n O n Isomers: (“alternate” forms) Structural – atoms different arrangement Geometric – shape along a double bond Cis Trans Enantiomers – mirror images
10
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
11
Geometric isomers cis – same side of double bound trans – diagonally bonded across double bond
12
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
13
CARBOHYDRATES: Monosaccharides – single sugars, may form rings Glucose Fructose Galactose Mannose Disaccharides – two monosaccharide rings linked Sucrose Lactose Maltose
14
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
16
CARBOHYDRATES: Polysacchrides – many sugars linked together Glycogen Starch Amylose Cellulose β1,4 glycosidic linkage Chitin
17
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
18
LIPIDS: include fats, oils, waxes all hydrophobic, nonpolar Triglycerides (fats) a Glycerol (3 carbon alcohol) and three Fatty Acids (FA) Fats may be: Saturated Unsaturated
19
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
22
Phospholipids Structure: Glycerol Two Fatty Acid Chains PO 4 Group Polar molecule Amphipathic
23
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
24
Amphipathic Molecule BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
26
Steroids: always 4 Carbon Rings Examples: Cholesterol Steroid Hormones estrogen testosterone progesterone Adrenocortical Steroids mineralocorticoids glucocorticoids Cholesterol
27
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Terpenes: Long chain Lipids Components of pigments Carotenoids β carotene Essential Oils of plants
28
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Prostaglandins: “Modified” form of fatty acid Mediators of Inflammation Multiple Functions in body Leukotrienes Synthesized from “essential” fatty acids: Linoleic Acid Linolenic Acid Arachidonic Acid
29
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Proteins: Contain C, H, O, and Nitrogen Polymers of AMINO ACIDS: Carboxyl Group (COOH) at one end Amino Group (NH 3 + ) at other end “Essential” Amino Acids linked via Peptide Bonds
30
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
31
Formation of Peptides Bonds
32
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Protein Structure: Four levels of organization: Primary – exact order of amino acids Secondary – regional patterns Tertiary – three dimensional shape of strand Quartenary – 2 or more tertiary structures
33
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Primary Structure of a Protein
34
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Secondary Structure
35
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Secondary Structure
36
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Globular ProteinTertiary Structure
37
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Quartenary Structure Protein

FUNCTIONS OF PROTEINS 1.ENZYMES (Catalysts) Gibb’s Free Energy of Activation Exergonic (exothermic) reactions Endergonic (endothermic) reactions Enzyme-Substrate Complex
41
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY ENZYMES FUNCTION BY: Provide Template for substrate Proper Orientation Induced Fit stresses molecules Lowers thermal energy need Provide conducive micro-environment
42
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
44
ENZYME FUNCTION ALTERED BY: Temperature - Ideal human temp. 35-40 o C pH - Optimal human pH 6-8
45
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY ENZYME INHIBITION Competitive Inhibition Noncompetitive Inhibition Genetic Regulation Activity Regulation Allosteric Regulation Feedback Inhibition Cooperativity

FUNCTIONS OF PROTEINS (continued) 1.ENZYMES (Catalysts) 2. DEFENSE Globular Proteins Immune Complex System 3. TRANSPORT Myoglobin/Haemoglobin 4. SUPPORT Fibrous Proteins (Collagen)
48
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY 5. MOTION Muscle Contraction Actin, Myosin 6. REGULATION Hormones Regulatory proteins Genes Enzymes
49
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY NUCLEIC ACIDS: Macromolecules for informational storage Polymers made of nucleotides Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) Ribonucleic Acid (RNA)
50
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY DNA Molecule composed of nucleotide sequences
51
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY NUCLEIC ACID STRUCTURE: Nucleotides: Five Carbon Sugar Ribose Deoxyribose Phosphate (PO 4 ) Group Organic N-Containing Base
52
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY Nucleotides are joined by Phosphodiester Bonds
53
BIOLOGIC CHEMISTRY
54
