Polar covalent bonds
|
One atom is more electronegative than the other
|
|
Non polar covalent bonds
|
Atoms share equal electrons
|
|
Hydrogen bonds
|
Weak chemical bonds that must be broken down to vaporize
|
|
Functional Group- Carboxyl
|
COOH, polar, e.g. organic acid and amino acids
|
|
Functional Group- Hydroxyl
|
OH, polar, e.g. sugars
|
|

|
NH2, polar, amino acids
|
|
Functional group- Sulhydryl
|

|
|
Saturated carbon chains
|
Long hydrocarbon chains (more hydrogen) molecules packed together
|
|
Unsaturated carbon chains
|
Can not pack closely together, kinks, liquid
|
|
Organic molecules- proteins
|
enzymes
|
|
organic molecule- carbohydrates
|
cannot be electrically charged, long hydrocarbons
|
|
organic molecule-lipids
|
fats, triglyc., Low density
|
|
organic molecules- Nucleic acid
|
5C sugar, phosphate and a nitrogenous base
|
|
Macromolecules are synthesized by ?
|
Dehydration reaction
|
|
Macromolecules are digested by ?
|
Hydrolysis (break down of water)
|
|
Properties of water
|
Good solvent
Regulates temperature (high specific heat and vaporization)] Good density (expansion upon freezing) Cohesive (high surface tension) |
|
How do this properties of water help? *
|
When water is it in liquid stage, hydrogen bonds are very fragile therefore bonds can break and form with greater frequency.
|
|
Acid Base Balance
|
0-6 Acid, More H+
7 Neutral, H+= OH- 8-14 Base, more OH- |
|
Hydrophillic
|
affinity for water, love
|
|
Hydrophobic
|
repel water
|
|
Primary structure
|
sequence of amino acids
|
|
Secondary structure
|
polypeptide chain coiled with alpha helix and Beta helix are joined by hydrogen bonds
|
|
Tertiary Structure
|
Fully dimensional shape of a fully polypeptide
|
|
Quaternary Structure
|
2 or more polypetide chains
|
|
Disulfide Bonds
|
Maintain the shape of a polypeptide chain
|
|
Denaturation
|
Change of the 3 dimensional shape due to disruption, hydrogen bonds, disulfide bridges
|
|
Endomembrane System
|
Nucleus- Nuclear envelope
Smooth ER (cells that secrete lipids) Rough ER- make and secrete proteins and vesicles ready for the Golgi- modigy the proteins, e.g. insulin. COnverted into lysosomes which fuse for digestion into the plasma membrane |
|
Perixosomes
|
break fatty acids and detoxify
|
|
Chloroplasts
|
Site of photosynthesis, make ATP, @ Calvin cycle
|
|
Mitichondria
|
Site of cellular respiration, make ATP, @ krebs cycle
|
|
Simple diffusion
|
movement of any substance from high to low concentration, no protein or energy required
|
|
Facilitated Diffusion
|
movement of any substance from high to low concentration, no energy, protein required
|
|
Active transport
|
Movement of any substance against its concentration gradient
|
|
Endocytosis
|
Plasma membrane surrounds as part of the environment
|
|
Exocytosis
|
Vesicle fuses with a plasma membrane and its released
|
|
Endergonic reactions:
|
Absorbs free energy from its surroundings, Final energy is greater than initial, G is positive, Reactions require energy input to ocurr
|
|
Exergonic reaction
|
Final is less than initial, G is negative, spontaneous, energy is added
|
|
ATP hydrolisis
|
Exergonic reaction, ATP bonds are broken down, the energy released if for chemical and mechanical work (shape and abulity to bind to a cytoskeleton)
|
|
Energy coupled reactions
|
They trap all the energy and then they release it from endergonic to exergonic
|
|
Induced Fit Model
|
Proteins speed up the reaction but are not used in the reaction. Bring chemical groups of the active site in positions that enhance the ability to break down a reaction
|
|
Shape and Change
|
the enzyme structure shape and change can make it specific to catalyze a reaction
|
|
Competitive Inhibitor
|
Block substrate from the enzyme competing for an active site
|
|
Noncompetitive inhibitor
|
CHanges the shape of the enzyme altering the active site
|
|
Second Law of thermodynamics
|
When reaction occurs entropy increases
|
|
Total solute gradient:
|
Necessary to cause osmotic movement across a membrane
|
|
G
|
For two reactions to be energy coupled, their G must equal to 1
|
|
weak acid into the inner membrane?
|
ATP increases more H concentration more diffusion of protons
|
|
Proton Pump- how it uses ATP
|
Exergonic ADP + P=ATP
Endergonic: H go down its concentration gradient |
|
enzymes speed up ? the reactions.. in terms of energy and physical
|
Energy? they activate the energy
Physical? bind to active site, stress or weaken |
