Carbon Atom


Carbon atoms:

Contain a total of 6 electrons

Only four electrons in the outer shell

Very diverse as one atom can bond with up to four
other atoms
Often bonds with other carbon atoms to make
hydrocarbons

Can produce long carbon chains like octane

Can produce ring forms like cyclohexane

Functional Groups

Functional groups are clusters of specific atoms bonded
to the carbon skeleton with characteristic structure and
functions

Always react in the same manner, regardless of where attached

Determine activity and polarity of large organic molecules

Many functional groups, but only a few are of major
biological importance

Depending on its functional groups, an organic molecule
may be both acidic and hydrophilic

Nonpolar organic molecules are hydrophobic (cannot
dissolve in water) unless they contain a polar functional
group

Macromolecules

Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic
acids are called macromolecules because of
their large size.

Usually consist of many repeating units

Proteins: The Polypeptide Backbone

A peptide bond is a covalent bond between two
amino acids (AA)

COOH of one AA covalently bonds to the NH2 of the
next AA

Two AAs bonded together – Dipeptide

Three AAs bonded together – Tripeptide

Many AAs bonded together – Polypeptide

Characteristics of a protein determined by composition
and sequence of AA’s

A protein may contain more than one polypeptide
chain

Virtually unlimited number of proteins

Protein: Levels of Structure


Protein shape (3-D structure) determines the function of
the protein in the organism
Proteins can have up to four levels of structure

Primary:



Secondary:



The way the amino acid chain coils or folds
Describing the way a knot is tied
Tertiary:



Literally, the sequence of amino acids
A string of beads (up to 20 different colors)
Overall three-dimensional shape of a polypeptide
Describing what a knot looks like from the outside
Quaternary:


Consists of more than one polypeptide
Like several completed knots glued together

Primary Structure
amino acid
This level of structure
is determined by the
sequence of amino
acids that join to form
a polypeptide.
peptide bond
COO–
hydrogen bond
hydrogen bond
Secondary Structure
Hydrogen bonding
between amino acids
causes the polypeptide
to form an alpha helix
or a pleated sheet.
(alpha) helix
(beta) sheet = pleated sheet
Tertiary Structure
Due in part to covalent
bonding between R
groups the polypeptide
folds and twists giving
it a characteristic
globular shape.
disulfide bond
Quaternary Structure
This level of structure
occurs when two or more
polypeptides join to form
a single protein.
