1. BIOL 1441-030 Wed 11:00 – 12:50 LS 200 BIOL 1441-033 Thu 3:00 – 4:50 LS 207 BIOL 1441-037 Fri 11:00 – 12:50 LS 200 Heath Blackmon LS 459 Office Hours: 10:30-12:00 Tue and Thu heath.blackmon@mavs.uta.edu

2. Macromolecules Diverse molecules that serve a variety of purposes in living organisms

3. CARBOHYDRATES LIPIDS PROTEINS NUCLEIC ACIDS*

4. Carbohydrates Made of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen Monosaccharide – Glucose, fructose, ribose Disaccharide – Lactose, Sucrose Polysaccharide – “Many Sugars”

5. Carbohydrates Polysaccharides – Starch Glucose storage – Glycogen Glucose storage – Cellulose structural

6. Carbohydrates How do you break up large sugars? – Hydrolysis With use of enzymes, break down complex starches to glucose, in presence of water. Ex: Seed growth, beer production

7. Lipids Made of Carbon and Hydrogen Insoluble in water Ex: Oils, fats – Found in plants and animals

9. Proteins Made of tightly bound Amino Acids – Peptide bonds Structure – Primary – Secondary – Tertiary – Quaternary

11. Tests to be performed today Sugar, Starch, Lipid, Protein

12. Sugar Test Benedict’s Reagent – Glucose vs. Sucrose – Tests for presence of simple sugars (monosacchride) – Record results

13. Starch Test Iodine Reagent (iodine potassium iodide) – Mix with potato starch in test tube – Record results

14. Hydrolysis Breaking up sugars with water and acid Test samples with Benedict's test and Iodine test Record results

15. Lipid Test Brown Paper test Record Results

16. Protein Test Biuret reagent – protein indicator Albumin – Egg protein Record Results

17. Macromolecules in Food Separation of Butter – Lipid Layer and Protein Layer of butter – Perform tests on the two layers and regular butter Tests with food – Perform the tests on Banana, Coconut, Milk, Peanut, and Potato

18. Lab Manual pp 52-75 Lab Manual 52-75 Conversions and Scientific Notation Difference between a monosachride and disachride Monosachrides are simple sugars Disachrides have two simple sugars joined together Carbohydrates are long chains of sugars An example of a way that we use macromolecules: Lipids – cell membranes Proteins – enzymes (hemoglobin) Carbohydrates – energy storage Nucleic Acids – DNA
