Thursday 11/21/13 • AIM: Why do we eat proteins • DO NOW: What are biomolecules? Why are biomolecules organic compounds? • HW:Read page 62. reading check on page 62 and question 4 on page 63
Review What are the 4 categories of biomolecules? • Why are biomolecules called polymers? • How do you build polymers? • How do you break down polymers?
Synthesis of polymers Monomers form larger molecules by condensation reactions called dehydration reactions 1 HO H 3 2 H HO Unlinked monomer Short polymer Dehydration removes a watermolecule, forming a new bond H2O 1 2 3 4 HO H Longer polymer (a) Dehydration reaction in the synthesis of a polymer Figure 5.2A
The Breakdown of Polymers Hydrolysis 1 3 HO 4 2 H Hydrolysis adds a watermolecule, breaking a bond H2O 1 2 H HO 3 H HO (b) Hydrolysis of a polymer Figure 5.2B
Protein Carbon, Hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur Structure for tissues and organs Hormones Metabolism Transport Receptors Catalysts
Structural Support • Collagen and elastin
Hormones: chemical messengers • Human Growth Hormone, Insulin, Glucagon
Transport across the cell membrane • In and out of cell
Transport through the body • Hemoglobin
Friday 11/22/13 • DO NOW: • Motivation: draw an amino acid using the following colors
Amino Acid • All amino acids have the same fundamental structure • The R group gives the amino acid it’s unique properties • Size, water solubility, electrical charge
There are only 20 amino acids which account for all of the proteins in all organisms
Proteins Polymers made of subunits called amino acids Amino acids: form 1 or more chains which fold extensively to form a functional protein
Dehydration synthesis of amino acids forms peptide bonds Protein or polypeptide: 50 or more amino acids bonded togetherPeptide: shorter chains
Shape of protein correlates to it’s function Shape of protein is determined by exact type, position and number of it’s amino acids In many cases 2 or more amino acid chains join Amino acid chain undergoes a series of folds If the shape of protein is denatured, the protein may no longer be able to function properly
ProteinsProtein structure ProteinsProtein structure Primary structure Proteins • Primary structure: Polypeptide chain
ProteinsProtein structure Secondary structure Secondary structure: folding of polypeptide chain
ProteinsProtein structure Tertiary structure Tertiary structure • Disulfide bridges
ProteinsProtein structure Quaternary structure Quaternary structure • Functional protein
Assessment • Create a table listing and describing each step in the development of a functional protein
Monday • AIM: How do enzymes catalyze metabolic reactions? • DO NOW: Use your notes to draw and label the structure of an amino acid
Enzymes are proteins • Built from amino acids
Enzymes are organic catalysts Speed up chemical reactions without being consumed by the reaction Proteins Built from amino acids Lower activation energy: the amount of energy needed for a chemical reaction to occur
Naming enzymes Enzyme names end with the -ase suffix, the -ase suffix is added to the substrate name. For example, sucrase is the enzyme that breaks down the substrate sucrose, a disaccharide, into the monosaccharides glucose and fructose. Protease: the enzyme that catalyzes the break down of proteins into amino acids
AIM: why are enzymes protein catalysts? • DO NOW: What type of molecule are enzymes?
How do enzymes work? Enzymes are substrate specific Substrate is the reactant Active site: part of the enzyme capable of recognizing and binding to substrate
2 methods in which enzymes work • Induced Fit Model • Lock and key model
Induced fit model Actually the "fit" of the substrate and the active site is not a "perfect fit” enzyme slightly changes shape to fit the substrate
Lock and key model • Active site of the enzyme fits perfectly to only one type of substrate
Enzyme-substrate complex • Lowers the activation energy causing the chemical reaction to happen
Assessment • In one complete sentence,explain why the shape of enzyme is important to its function.
AIM: What factors effect the rate of enzyme activity? • DO NOW: What is activation energy? • Enzyme Quiz Monday
DO NOW Answer • Activation energy: The amount of energy it takes for a chemical reaction to occur • How do enzymes catalyze chemical reactions? • By lowering the activation energy • When do enzymes lower activation energy? • Enzyme substrate complex
Factors that affect enzyme activity 1. Amount of enzyme 2. Amount of substrate 3. pH 4. Temperature
Concentration of Enzyme If the amount of substrate remains the same: As increase amount of enzyme, the rate of an enzyme action also increase UNTIL… All enzymes become saturated At this point all enzymes are working at maximum capacity
Concentration of substrate If the amount of enzyme remains the same: at low concentrations, of substrate, Enzyme activity is low Because all enzymes are NOT working As you increase the amount of substrate, you increase enzyme activity until all substrates are bound to enzymes At this point, enzymeactivity is steady
pH Each enzyme works best at a certain pH 2. At optimal (best) pH: enzyme has the right shape to fit substrate 3. Changes in pH change the shape of enzymes and their ability to fit with substrates 4. Most enzymes work best at pH’s near 7 (neutral)
