Aldose or Ketose
depending on location of carbonyl (sugars)
monosaccarides
monomers of carbohydrates. can be di-, tri-, or poly-
glycosidic linkage
covalent bonds between two monosaccarides by dehydration reaction to form carbohydrates.
dehydration synthesis
take out an H and an OH of two monomers to make a polymer.
Hydrolysis
breaking/splitting a polymer by adding water.
Phospholipids
hydrophilic lipid that is amphipathic
two fatty acids and one phosphate.
amphipathic
Head is hydrophilic
Tail is hydrophobic
phospholipids.
Ester linkage
the bond found in Lipids
Trigliceride
fats with three fatty acids and one glycerol
Aldahyde
Carbonyl group at the end of a carbohydrate molecule
Ketone
Carbonyl group in the middle of a carbohydrate.
Peptide bond
bond found in protines
Maltose
an alpha glucose (sugar) with a 1-4 glycosidic linkage. formed with two glucose molecules.
Fructose
5 carbons, not 6.
Amalose
helix shape of plant starches. 1-4 linkages, all glucose, unbranched.
analopectin
1-4 linkages, every 34 links there is a 1-6 linkage making a branch.
glycogen
liver cells that are very branched.
Beta Glucose monomers
1-4 glycosidic linkages that are straight, not helical. (molecules alternate between right-side-up and upside-down
Cellulose
a beta glucose molecule used in the structure of plants and to coat the digestive systems of animals.
Chitin
nitrogen presence in animal polysaccaride. found in cell walls of fungi, exoskeletons of anthropods, and not glucose.
Glycerol
In dehydration synthesis, bonds to fatty acids.
Saturated Fats
all single bonds, no double bonds. solid at room temperature and can pack together.
Unsaturated fats
double bonds between carbons form kinks in molecules, making them liquid at room temperature because they cannot pack together.
Omega-3
unsaturated fat where the double bond is first found at the third carbon. (Example)
Peptide bonds
bonds to carboxyl.
Primary structure
beads on a chain, sequence of the 20 acids. Formed by instructions in DNA.
Phosphodiester bonds
bonds in nucleic acids
