What is Biochemistry ?
12
1 minute discussion with your pair
15
A scientific discipline to explain life at the molecular level uses the tools and terminology of chemistry to describe the various feature of living things offer insights into the treatment of diseases e.g. cancer, diabetes etc. Offer answers to : e.g. what are we made of? how do we work? why we react in a certain way?
16
1.Biomolecule 2.Water chemistry 3.Protein : Structure & metabolism 4.Enzyme : Properties & Kinetics 5.Carbohydrate : structure & metabolism 6.Lipid : Classes & Metabolism 7.Aerobic metabolism
17
At the end of this topic, you should be able to : 1. Name the common functional groups 2. Name the linkages in biological molecules 3. Draw the general molecular structure of biomolecules 4. Explain the process of oxidation and reduction
18
What do you know…. the process of oxidation and reduction
19
1 minute discussion with your pair
22
Biomolecules are compound of carbon and hydrogen (CH) Four major classes of biomolecules & building blocks: What are the functions of biomolecules: 1.Synthesize larger molecules 2.Carry out special biological functions e.g ATP 3.Take part in complex reaction pathways 1. Carbohydrate sugars 2. Protein amino acids 3. Lipids fatty acids 4. Nucleic acids nucleotides http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/asguru/biology/02biologicalmolecules/02c arbohydrates/15monosaccharides/index.shtml Biomolecules
23
Chemical properties of molecule are depend on by specific arrangement of atoms = functional groups Most biomolecules contain more than 1 fn gp. e.g. sugar molecules Several hydroxyl gp Aldehyde gp
24
Sugar and carbohydrates Contain alcohol groups & aldehydes/ketones Simple/monomer : monosaccharide glucose, fructose, ribose, galactose Polymer: polysaccharide starch & cellulose; glycogen Complex : nucleotide : contain ribose / deoxyribose glycoprotein : protein contain carbohydrate glycolipid : lipid contain carbohydrate.
25
or D-glucose an aldose an aldohexose or D-fructose a ketose a ketohexose * *
26
Monosaccharides are connected by GLYCOSIDIC BOND via the process of dehydration C4 C1 Glycosidic bond
27
Amino acids, peptides and protein A.a. contains : 1.amino group 2.carboxylic acid group 3.side chain gp/R group
28
Amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds Polypeptides : peptides ( up to 50 a.a) protein (longer)
30
Fatty acids and lipids Contain : 1. one carboxylic acid 2. with long HC chain Are monocarboxylic acids Usually contain even number of C atoms water insoluble E storage Alkyl gp Contains C & H atoms Carboxyl gp RCH 2 C O OH
31
Monounsaturated f.a. = contain one double bond Polyunsaturated f.a. = contain two or more double bond Saturated f.a = only single bond (saturated with hydrogens!) one carboxylic acid with even C number & no branching
32
Fatty acids are combined with one glycerol to form a fat molecule triglycerol // triacylglycerol //TAG Through a process :esterification/dehydration/condensation
33
Nucleotides and nucleic acids Contain : 1.5C sugar 2.A nitrogenous base 3.Phosphate gp. Base consist of purine or pyrimidine.
34
e.g. ATP e.g. DNA/ RNA Complementary base pairing DNA : A-T ; C-G RNA: A-U ; C-G;
36
Assembling small molecules into polymeric macromolecules needs energy Breaking polymeric molecules into smaller molecule produces energy
37
BIOCHEMICAL PROCESSES All life processes consist of chemical reaction catalyzed by enzymes What are the primary functions of metabolism? 1. To acquire and use energy 2. To synthesize molecules needed for cellular structure & function 3. For growth & development 4. To remove waste & other toxins
38
Biochemical reactions involve enzyme catalysis Most common reaction types: 1.Nucleophilic substitution 2.Elimination 3.Addition 4.Isomerization 5.Oxidation-reduction / redox reaction
39
Nucleophilic substitution Def: one atom or gp substituted for another Sulfur nucleophile attacks C=O Nucleophilic Substitution-acyl
40
Addition: two molecules combine to give one. One molecule usually multiple bonded. Addition occurs at C=C hydration
41
Elimination - a molecule loses atoms usually in the form of a small molecule like water. Water is lost to form phosphoenolpyruvate PGA PEP
42
Isomerization: molecule rearranges atoms 3-phosphoglycerate to 2-phosphoglycerate
43
Hydrolysis: water cleaves (splits) a covalent bond and inserts itself. Hydrolysis of a fat
44
In biochemistry redox reactions are usually recognized by the following changes: Oxidation occurs when a molecule loses two hydrogens and/or gains an oxygen. (-2H & +O @ -2H @ +O) Reduction occurs when a molecule gains two hydrogens and/or loses an oxygen. ( +2H & -O @ +2H @ -O) Oxidation-reduction Open up your text book: find out what is oxidation and reduction.
45
Oxidation Lactate is oxidized. NAD + is oxidizing agent. Reduction CH 3 C -OH II O CH 3 CH 2 -OH Acetic acid Ethyl alcohol Reduction occur as a molecule loses oxygen and /or gain hydrogen
