Chapter 5 Macromolecule
Lipids • Hydrophobic • Consist mostly of hydrocarbons • Include waxes, fats, phospholipids and steroids • Monomers are glycerol and fatty acids • 1:2 CH ratio with very little O • Bond by an ester linkage
fatty acid glycerol
Stearic acid Figure 5.12 (a) Saturated fat and fatty acid • Saturated fats contain single bonded carbons which allow the chains to tightly pack together.
Oleic acid cis double bond causes bending Figure 5.12 (b) Unsaturated fat and fatty acid • Unsaturated fats contain double bonds, causing the chain to kink. This prevents the chains from compacting.

Proteins • From the Greek word “proteios”; meaning “first place” • Composed of CHON • No specific ratio • Monomers are amino acids • Bonded by peptide bond

Late 1940’s and early 1950’s, Fredrick Sanger of Cambridge University in England, worked on the hormone insulin and was able to determine the primary sequence of amino acids through enzymatic hydrolysis and chromatography.

Correctlyfoldedprotein Polypeptide Cap Hollowcylinder The cap attaches, causing the cylinder to change shape insuch a way that it creates a hydrophilic environment for the folding of the polypeptide. The cap comesoff, and the properlyfolded protein is released.
