Types of Chemical bonds
|
1) Ionic-----electrons are transfered
2) Covalent--- electrons are shared ***Nonpolar covalent ---shared equually ***Polar covalent----not equally shared 3) Hydrogen bonds --- weak bond due to dipole in 2 molecules |
|
Properties of water
|
1)solvent --- great solvent for polar or ionc substances due to polarity
2) Hydrophobic---- water fearing, non polar 3) hydrophillic --- water loving polar 4) High heat capacity----- must add larg quanity of heat / energy to change temp of H2O 5) Ice Floats---- becomes less dence then liquid, latic / chrystal structure 6) Cohesion ----- sticks to its self hydrogen bonds, = high surface tension 7) Adhesion----stick to polar stuff, |
|
Organic molecules
|
Made of Carbon and Hydrogen atoms
1)Macromolecules ---- 2) Polymers----molecule sthat consits of a single unit (monomers) repeted many times |
|
Functional Groups
|
1) Hydroxyl -OH
2) Carboxyl -COOH 3) Amino -NH2 4) Phosphate -PO3 5 Carboonyl -C=O (ketone) 6) Carbonyl -COH (Aldehydes) 7) methyl -CH3 |
|
Carbohydrates
|
1) Monosaccharide --- single sugar moleculelike fructose glucose
2) Disaccharide---2 sugar molecules joined by a glycosidic linkage (loss of H2O) 3) Sucrose = glucose + fructose 4)Lactose = glucose + galactose 5) maltose = glucose + glucose 6) Polysaccharide--- a series of connecteed monosaccharides. Starch, Glycogen, Cellulose, Chitin |
|
Lipids
|
Lipids are insoluble in water but soluble in nonpolar substacnes
1) Triglycerides (triacylglycerols) ---Consist of 3 fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule. *** Saturated fatty acid has no doubble bonded carbons ***Monounsaturated fatty acid ahs one double bonded carbon ***polyunsaturated fattya acid has two or more double bonds 2) Phospholipid--- Just like lipid except one fatty acid chain is replaced w/ phosphate group ***Amphipathic ---Hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail 3)Steroids--- back bone of 4 carbon rings, cholesterol testosterone estrogen |
|
Proteins
|
All proteins are polymers of amino acids ie a chain of amino acids covalently bonded by peptide bonds and the chaiin is a poly peptide
Group by function 1)Structural proteins---- karatin in hair 2) Storage proteins ---- casein mild 3) Transport proteins --- cell membran 4) Defensive proteins --- Antibodies 5) Enzymes--- regulat chemical RXN Structure of protein 1) primary structure --- describes the order of amino acids 2) Secondary structure--- 3D shape via H-bonding a-helix and B-pleated sheet (fibrous proteins) 3) Tertiary structure--- additional 3D shaping H-Bonding and ionic bonding between R groups and hydrophobic effect and disufide bonds (globular) 4) Quaternary structure--- protein that is assembled form two or more separate peptide chains like hemoglobin |
|
Nucleic Acids
|
1) DNA (deoxyribonucleis acid) is a polymer of nucleotides
2) Nucleotide ----consists of 3 parts ***nitrogen base ***deoxyribose ( a suger) ***phosphate group 3) 4 nucleotides each w/different base ***Adenin --2 ring (purine) ***Thymine - 1 ring (pyrimidine) ***Cytosine 1 ring (pyrimidine) ***Guanine - 2 ring (purine) RNA 1) sugar is ribose 2)NO thymine replaced by uracil 3)single strand |
|
Chemical RXN in Metabolic processes
|
chemical reactons that occur in bio systems = metabolism
catabolism = breakdown Anabolism (synthesis) = formation Activation energy---energy needed to creat new bonds Catalyst---accelerates the rate or RXN w/o beeing consumed 1) Equilibrum = rate of r forward rxn = rate of reverse rxn. 2)Enzymes - globular proteins that act as catalysts ***enzymes act on substrate ***Enzymes are substrete specific ***enzymes is unchanged as a result of a reaction ***enzyme catalyzes a RX both directions ***standerd suffix is "ase" ***Induced fit model describes how enzyems work 3)Cofactors --non protein molecule sthat assist enzyes ***coenzymes are organic cofactors vitamins ***inorgaic cofators metal ions 4) ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) common source of energy of activation ATP->ADP makes new bonds ATP are assembled by phosphorylation ADP->ATP Refulation of chmeicla RXN 1) Allosteric Enzymes --- two binding sites ***acitve site for substrate ***Allosteric effector---Activator / inhibitor 2) Competitive inhibition---mimics the substrate inhibits enzyme by occupying active site prevents enyme form catalyzing substrate 3)noncompetivive inhibiton --inhibits by binding to enzyme at a location other then the acivation site. 4) cooperativeity----- binding capacity increase after the 1st substrate binds to a acitve site in quaternary structure |
