Protein Structures Hydrogen bond Pleated sheet Polypeptide (single subunit) Amino acid (a) Primary structure Hydrogen bond Alpha helix (c) Tertiary structure (b) Secondary structure (d) Quaternary structure
Polysaccharides • Complex carbohydrates Composed of many sugar monomers linked together Polymers of monosaccharide chains
Examples of Polysaccharides Glucose Monomer Starch Glycogen Cellulose
B. A. D. C. 1. Which of the following depictsa PROTEIN?
2. Which row in the chart below contains correct information concerning synthesis?
3. Bodybuilders require a lot of protein to strengthen their muscles. What would you suggest he/or she do? Eat a lot of carbohydrates to grow large muscles. Eat more eggs, fish, chicken, steak Sleep more so proteins can produce in the stomach. Do 100 pushups nightly to increase the production of white blood cells
4. A lab student is observing LIPIDS in the laboratory. How will the lab student know they they are looking at is a lipid? It will look waxy and oily It will sparkle in rainbow colored hexagons It will be appear white, solid, and full of crystals It will smell like fish, eggs, and chicken
5. Which of the following biomolecules is the main source of energy for living things? A. Carbohydate B. Lipid C. Nucleic Acid D. Protein
6. Proteins fold into millions of different kinds of shapes. What determines the shape of the protein? • A. The type of environment it is in • B. The mood of the protein • C. The types and order of amino acids • D. The foods we eat
NUCLEIC ACIDS • DNA & RNA • Made of nucleotides • Contain C, H, O, N & P • Contain genetic information • Control the activities of cells
Enzymes are proteins that are used by the cell to speed up and regulate metabolic reactions. Enzymes are biological catalysts that remain unchanged by the reaction. Enzymes
The substrate is temporarily bound to its enzyme at the active site. The enzyme may change shape slightly to accommodate the substrate. Enzymes
ENZYMES ARE VERY PICKY!!!! ENZYMES ARE VERY PICKY. TEMPERATURE IF IT GETS TOO HOT, TOO COLD – THEY CHANGE SHAPE pH IF IT BECOMES TOO ACIDIC – THEY CHANGE SHAPE IF
