Overview: The Molecules of Life
• All living things are made up of four classesof large biological molecules: carbohydrates,lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids
• Macromolecules are large molecules
composed of thousands of covalentlyconnected atoms
• Molecular structure and function areinseparable

Concept 5.1: Macromolecules are polymers,
built from monomers
• A polymer is a long molecule consisting ofmany similar building blocks
•These small building-block molecules arecalled monomers
• Three of the four classes of life’s organicmolecules are polymers
– Carbohydrates – Proteins
– Nucleic acids

• A dehydration reaction occurs when twomonomers bond together through the loss of awater molecule
• Polymers are disassembled to monomers byhydrolysis, a reaction that is essentially thereverse of the dehydration reaction

The Diversity of Polymers
• Each cell has thousands of differentmacromolecules
• Macromolecules vary among cells of anorganism, vary more within a species, andvary even more between species
• An immense variety of polymers can be builtfrom a small set of monomers

Concept 5.2: Carbohydrates serve as fuel
and building material
• Carbohydrates include sugars and thepolymers of sugars
•
The simplest carbohydrates aremonosaccharides, or single sugars
• Carbohydrate macromolecules arepolysaccharides, polymers composed of
many sugar building blocks

Sugars
• Monosaccharides have molecular formulasthat are usually multiples of CH2O
• Glucose (C6H12O6) is the most commonmonosaccharide
• Monosaccharides are classified by
– The location of the carbonyl group (as aldoseor ketose)
– The number of carbons in the carbon skeleton

Structural Polysaccharides
• The polysaccharide cellulose is a majorcomponent of the tough wall of plant cells
• Like starch, cellulose is a polymer of glucose,but the glycosidic linkages differ
• The difference is based on two ring forms forglucose: alpha () and beta ()

• Polymers with glucose are helical• Polymers with glucose are straight
• In straight structures, H atoms on one
strand can bond with OH groups on otherstrands
• Parallel cellulose molecules held togetherthis way are grouped into microfibrils,
which form strong building materials forplants

• Enzymes that digest starch by hydrolyzing linkages can’t hydrolyze linkages in cellulose
• Cellulose in human food passes through thedigestive tract as insoluble fiber
• Some microbes use enzymes to digestcellulose
• Many herbivores, from cows to termites, have
symbiotic relationships with these microbes

Concept 5.3: Lipids are a diverse group of
hydrophobic molecules
• Lipids are the one class of large biologicalmolecules that do not form polymers
•
The unifying feature of lipids is having little orno affinity for water
• Lipids are hydrophobic becausethey consistmostly of hydrocarbons, which form nonpolar
covalent bonds• The most biologically important lipids are fats,
phospholipids, and steroids

Fats
• Fats are constructed from two types of smallermolecules: glycerol and fatty acids
• Glycerol is a three-carbon alcohol with ahydroxyl group attached to each carbon
• A fatty acid consists of a carboxyl groupattached to a long carbon skeleton

• Fats separate from water because watermolecules form hydrogen bonds with eachother and exclude the fats
• In a fat, three fatty acids are joined toglycerol by an ester linkage, creating atriacylglycerol, or triglyceride

• Fatty acids vary in length (number of carbons)and in the number and locations of doublebonds
• Saturated fatty acids have the maximumnumber of hydrogen atoms possible and nodouble bonds
• Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more
double bonds

Amino Acid Polymers
•
Amino acids are linked by peptide bonds• A polypeptide is a polymer of amino acids
• Polypeptides range in length from a few tomore than a thousand monomers
• Each polypeptide has a unique linearsequence of amino acids, with a carboxyl end(C-terminus) and an amino end (N-terminus)

Four Levels of Protein Structure
•
The primary structure of a protein is its uniquesequence of amino acids
• Secondary structure, found in most proteins,consists of coils and folds in the polypeptide
chain
• Tertiary structure is determined by interactionsamong various side chains (R groups)
• Quaternary structure results when a proteinconsists of multiple polypeptide chains

What Determines Protein Structure?
•
In addition to primary structure, physical andchemical conditions can affect structure
• Alterations in pH, salt concentration,temperature, or other environmental factors
can cause a protein to unravel• This loss of a protein’s native structure is
called denaturation
•
A denatured protein is biologically inactive

Protein Folding in the Cell
•
It is hard to predict a protein’s structure fromits primary structure
• Most proteins probably go through severalstages on their way to a stable structure
• Chaperonins are protein molecules thatassist the proper folding of other proteins
• Diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s,
and mad cow disease are associated withmisfolded proteins

• Nucleoside = nitrogenous base + sugar
• There are two families of nitrogenous bases
– Pyrimidines (cytosine, thymine, and uracil)have a single six-membered ring
– Purines (adenine and guanine) have a six-membered ring fused to a five-membered ring
• In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose; in RNA, the
sugar is ribose
• Nucleotide = nucleoside + phosphate group

Nucleotide Polymers

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/05-lecture-presentation-pc 126/133
• Nucleotide polymers are linked together to builda polynucleotide
• Adjacent nucleotides are joined by covalentbonds that form between the —OH group on the
3 carbon of one nucleotide and the phosphateon the 5 carbon on the next
• These links create a backbone of sugar-phosphate units with nitrogenous bases as
appendages
• The sequence of bases along a DNA or mRNApolymer is unique for each gene

• DNA molecules have two polynucleotidesspiraling around an imaginary axis, forming a
double helix• In the DNA double helix, the two backbones
run in opposite 5→ 3 directions from eachother, an arrangement referred to asantiparallel

• The nitrogenous bases in DNA pair up and formhydrogen bonds: adenine (A) always withthymine (T), and guanine (G) always withcytosine (C)
• Called complementary base pairing• Complementary pairing can also occur between
two RNA molecules or between parts of the samemolecule
• In RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil (U) so Aand U pair
