Carbon: The Backbone of Life
• Living organisms consist mostly of carbon-based compounds due to its ability to form large, complex, and diverse molecules
• Proteins, DNA, carbohydrates, and other molecules that distinguish living matter are all composed of carbon compounds

Carbon: Organic Chemistry
• The study of carbon compounds is called Organic chemistry (main elements = CHONPS)
• Organic compounds range from simple molecules to colossal ones
• Most organic compounds contain hydrogen atoms in addition to carbon atoms with O, N and P among others thrown in from time to time.

Carbon has 4 valence electrons, thus makes 4 bonds
• With four valence electrons, carbon can form four covalent bonds with a variety of atoms
• This ability makes large, complex molecules possible
• In molecules with multiple carbons, each carbon bonded to four other atoms has a tetrahedral shape

Carbon Skeletons Vary
• Carbon chains form the skeletons of most organic molecules and can vary in length and shape

Functional Groups
A few chemical groups are key to the function of biomolecules
• Distinctive properties of organic molecules depend on the carbon skeleton and on the molecular components attached to it
• A number of characteristic groups can replace the hydrogens attached to skeletons of organic molecules

Biomolecule 2: Lipids
Lipids are a diverse group of hydrophobic
molecules
• Lipids are the one class of large biological
molecules that do not form polymers
• The unifying feature of lipids is having little or no
affinity for water (water fearing)
• Lipids are hydrophobic because they are non-
polar
• The most biologically important lipids are fats,
phospholipids, and steroids

Fats: Start with a Simple Little Glycerol Molecule
• Fats are constructed from two
types of smaller molecules:
glycerol and fatty acids
• Glycerol is a three-carbon alcohol
with a hydroxyl group attached to
each carbon
• A fatty acid consists of a carboxyl
group attached to a long carbon
skeleton

• Fats made from
saturated fatty acids
are called saturated
fats, and are solid at
room temperature
• Most animal fats are
saturated (lard)
• Saturated fatty acids havethe maximum number of hydrogen atoms possible and no double bonds, so they are straight

Saturated or Unsaturated?
38
• Fats made from
unsaturated fatty acids
are called unsaturated
fats or oils, and are
liquid at room
temperature
• Plant fats and fish fats
are usually unsaturated
• Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds, so they bend

fats is long-term
energy storage!

Peptide Bonds
• Amino acids are linked by peptide bonds
(through dehydration synthesis)
• A polypeptide is a polymer of amino acids
• Polypeptides range in length from a few to more
than a thousand monomers (Yikes!)
• Each polypeptide has a unique linear sequence
of amino acids, with a carboxyl end (C-terminus)
and an amino end (N-terminus)

Protein Structure & Function
• At first, all we have is a string of AA’s bound with peptide bonds.
• Once the string of AA’s interacts with itself and its environment (often aqueous), then we have a functional protein that consists of one or more polypeptides precisely twisted, folded, and coiled into a unique shape
• The sequence of amino acids determines a protein’s three-dimensional structure
• A protein’s structure determines its function

Protein Structure: 4 Levels
• Primary structure is the amino acid chain pipe
cleaner
• Secondary structure consists of alpha helices
(coils) or beta pleats (folds) coiled/folded pipe
cleaner
• Tertiary structure is determined by interactions
among side chains (IMFs and bonds) within the
helix/pleat pipe cleaner connected to itself with
paper clip
• Quaternary structure consists of multiple
polypeptide chains multiple pipe cleaners61

Primary Structure
• Primary structure,
the sequence of
amino acids in a
protein, is like the
order of letters in a
long word
• Primary structure is
determined by
inherited genetic
information
![Page 63: Organic Chemistry - Henry County Public Schools · 2017-01-23 · Carbon: Organic Chemistry •The study of carbon compounds is called Organic chemistry (main elements = CHONPS) •Organic](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9a9ffc382b71748e7e3b34/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Secondary Structure
• The coils and folds of
secondary structure
result from hydrogen
bonds between repeating
constituents of the
polypeptide backbone
• Typical secondary structures are a coil called an helix and a folded structure called a pleated sheet
63
![Page 64: Organic Chemistry - Henry County Public Schools · 2017-01-23 · Carbon: Organic Chemistry •The study of carbon compounds is called Organic chemistry (main elements = CHONPS) •Organic](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043009/5f9a9ffc382b71748e7e3b34/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Tertiary Structure
• Tertiary structure is determined by interactions
between R groups, rather than interactions
between backbone constituents
• These interactions between R groups include
actual ionic bonds and strong covalent bonds
called disulfide bridges which may reinforce the
protein’s structure.
• IMFs such as London dispersion forces (LDFs
a.k.a. and van der Waals interactions), hydrogen
bonds (IMFs), and hydrophobic interactions
(IMFs) may affect the protein’s structure

more polypeptide chains form one

three polypeptides coiled like a rope

Sickle-Cell Disease: A change in Primary Structure
• A slight change in primary structure can affect a
protein’s structure and ability to function
• Sickle-cell disease, an inherited blood disorder,
results from a single amino acid substitution in
the protein hemoglobin

Changing Protein Structure
• Proteins are fragile. The environment can affect
protein structure and therefore function.
• Alterations in pH, salt, temperature, etc can
cause a protein to unravel; this is denaturing
and the protein doesn’t function anymore
• A denatured protein is biologically inactive

Biomolecule 4: Nucleic Acids
• Nucleic acids store, transmit, and help
express hereditary information
• The amino acid sequence of a polypeptide is
programmed by a unit of inheritance called a
gene
• Genes are made of DNA, a nucleic acid
made of monomers called nucleotides

Two Types of Nucleic Acids
• There are two types of nucleic
acids
– Deoxyribonucleic acid
(DNA)
– Ribonucleic acid (RNA)
• DNA provides directions for its
own replication
• DNA directs synthesis of
messenger RNA (mRNA) and,
through mRNA, controls protein
synthesis
• Protein synthesis occurs on
ribosomes

• Types of nitrogenous bases
– Pyrimidines (cytosine, thymine, and uracil)
have a single ring, that has six-members
– Purines (adenine and guanine) have two rings;
a six-membered ring fused to a five-membered
ring
• DNA vs. RNA nucleotides:
• In DNA, “T” is used and the sugar is deoxyribose; in
RNA, “U” is used and the sugar is ribose

• When NAs link sides it is with hydrogen bonds
between complementary base pairs (A w/ T, C
