Chapter 3 BIOCHEMISTRY
3-1: Carbon Compounds • Who’s made of them???
Organic Compounds Vs. Inorganic • Carbon, carbon, carbon! • Living organisms...mostly __________ • Almost everything else is _________! • No carbon
CARBON • # valence electrons? • Wants to bond to • Forms:
What are the “lines”? • Each C forms HOW MANY bonds? Single, Dbl, Tpl
FUNCTIONAL GROUPS • Clusters of • Hydroxyl groups • Soluble in
Making Large Carbon Molecules: “MACROMOLECULES” • MONOMER: • POLYMER:
How’s It Work? • Condensation Reactions
Figure 3.4 Condensation of Polymers : Water is removed; Cov bond forms b/w monomers
In words... • WATER comes from • Monomers? Polymer?
Tasty. Gotta break it down. HOW? • Reactions • REVERSE of • is USED to break bonds
Figure 3.4 Hydrolysis of Polymers– water is added; cov bond b/w monomers is broken
ACT IT OUT! • You’re lots of monomers • One by one you link up..... “??? reactions?” • Now you’re a .... “???” • Now one by one you break up... “??? Reactions?” • Now you’re “???”
ATP • A t p • 3 “parts”: • Phosphates joined by • Break releases • reaction

What is an organic compound??? • Compounds made up of ... • C, H, O
Proteins • Monomers: Amino Acids, peptide bonded together • C,H,O, N & Sometimes S • Major use? • Structural (keratin) • Functional (enzymes, hemoglobin) http://my.hrw.com/sh2/sh07_10/student/flash/visual_concepts/60044.htm
Amino Acids • (monomers for proteins) • basic structure • Central carbon atom • A single Hydrogen atom • A Carboxyl group • An amino group • R group R group
Peptide Bonds • Special covalent bond • condensation reaction
Amino Acids • 20 different ones used by human body • Body produces most • not all; not in great enough quantities • Two categories • Essential - must be obtained by food • Non-essential - produced by human body
Amino Acids in Food • plants and seeds • Animal products • Ex. Eggs, milk, fish, poultry, and beef
1 type of Protein: Enzymes • Biological catalysts • ESSENTIAL FOR CELL FUNCTION!!! • Substrate(s) fits @ active site(s) • Reaction occurs here product(s)
Enzymes http://my.hrw.com/sh2/sh07_10/student/flash/visual_concepts/60034.htm
Lipids • C,H,O & Non-polar • NOT soluble in water • Examples include… • Fats-- Triglycerides • Oils • Waxes • Uses: • Cell membranes--phospholipids • Steroid hormones http://my.hrw.com/sh2/sh07_10/student/flash/visual_concepts/60035.htm
Lipids...more uses • Excess fats stored by the body • Under skin for warmth • Around organs for protection • Long-term (stored) source of energy!!!
Lipids • Monomers: glycerol & fatty acids • Diff Structures: • Saturated • all C atoms connected with single bonds • Unsaturated • At least one C bond is a double bond • Polyunsaturated • Two or more bonds are double Ex: phospholipids, butter, oils
Carbohydrates • Monomer: sugar • C,H,O in 1:2:1 ratio • Short-term source of energy • (cell respiration) • Sugars are quickly converted to ATP • Usable energy
Carbohydrates Ex: glucose, glycogen, sucrose Ex: glucose, glycogen, sucrose • Three types of sugars • Monosaccharides • Simple, one sugar • Disaccharides • Two chemically bonded monosaccharides • Polysaccharides • Complex, made up of many monosaccharides • Requires use of enzyme to break down to useable form http://my.hrw.com/sh2/sh07_10/student/flash/visual_concepts/60029.htm
Nucleic Acids • 2 examples/types: • DNA • Deoxyribonucleic acid • RNA • Ribonucleic acid http://my.hrw.com/sh2/sh07_10/student/flash/visual_concepts/60041.htm
For both: • Monomer: Nucleotide • Three parts • Phosphate group • Five-carbon sugar • Ring shaped nitrogenous base
Pineapple enzyme lab PROCEDURE: Label all cups with your period & team name and label them: FRESH, CANNED, PLAIN Make Jello according to instructions on box. Put one piece of canned pineapple in the “CANNED” cup. Put one piece of fresh pineapple into the “FRESH” cup. Carefully pour 15mL of Jello into each of your three cups MEASURE CAREFULLY, THIS IS AN EXPERIMENT!! Refrigerate overnight. Make qualitative observations tomorrow. CLEAN UP YOUR LAB AREA!!! You will lose points if you leave it a mess
