A plymer is a lng mlecule cnsisting f many similar r identical building blcks linked by cvalent bnds. The repeated units are small mlecules called mnmers. Sme f the mlecules that serve as mnmers have ther functins f their wn. These plymers are created thrugh a dehydratin reactin, and disassembled thrugh a hydrlysis reactin
5 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.1 Macrmlecules are plymers, built frm mnmers The cvalent bnds that cnnect mnmers in a bilgical plymer are disassembled by hydrlysis, a reactin that is effectively the reverse f dehydratin. In hydrlysis, bnds are brken by the additin f water mlecules. A hydrgen atm attaches t ne mnmer, and a hydrxyl grup attaches t the adjacent mnmer.
6 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.1 Macrmlecules are plymers, built frm mnmers The chemical mechanisms which cells use t make and break plymers are similar fr all classes f macrmlecules. These prcesses are facilitated by enzymes, specialized macrmlecules (catalysts) that speed up chemical reactins in cells. Enzymes bind t ther substances (substrates), s their shape is critical fr their functin
7 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.1 Macrmlecules are plymers, built frm mnmers The cvalent bnds that cnnect mnmers in a plymer are disassembled by hydrlysis, a reactin that is effectively the reverse f dehydratin. The prcess f digestin is an example f hydrlysis within the human bdy. We take in fd as rganic plymers that are t large fr ur cells t absrb. In the digestive tract, enzymes direct the hydrlysis f specific plymers. The resulting mnmers are absrbed by the cells lining the gut and transprted t the bldstream fr distributin t bdy cells. The cells f ur bdy then use dehydratin reactins t assemble the mnmers int new and different plymers that carry ut functins specific t the particular cell type.
8 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.1 Macrmlecules are plymers, built frm mnmers An immense variety f plymers can be built frm a small number f mnmers. Each cell has thusands f different kinds f macrmlecules. Macrmlecules vary amng cells f the same individual. They vary mre amng unrelated individuals f a species, and even mre between species. This diversity cmes frm varius cmbinatins f the cmmn mnmers and sme thers that ccur rarely. These mnmers can be cnnected in a great many cmbinatins, just as the 26 letters in the alphabet are used t create a whle dictinary f wrds. The mlecular lgic f life is simple but elegant: Small mlecules cmmn t all rganisms are rdered int unique macrmlecules.

The kinks caused by the cis duble bnds prevent the mlecules frm packing tightly enugh t slidify at rm temperature. Fats made frm saturated fatty acids are saturated fats. Fats made frm unsaturated fatty acids are unsaturated fats. Mst animal fats are saturated and are slid at rm temperature. Plant and fish fats are liquid at rm temperature and are knwn as ils.

Mst prteins have segments f their plypeptide chains repeatedly ciled r flded. These cils and flds are referred t as secndary structure and result frm hydrgen bnds between the repeating cnstituents f the plypeptide backbne. Each hydrgen bnd is weak, but the sum f many hydrgen bnds stabilizes the structure f part f the prtein.
60 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.4 Prteins include a diversity f structures, resulting in a wide range f functins Prtein cnfrmatin determines prtein functin. One secndary structure is the helix, a delicate cil held tgether by hydrgen bnding between every furth amin acid, as fund in transthyretin. Sme fibrus prteins, such as -keratin, the structural prtein f hair, have the helix frmatin ver mst f their length. The ther main type f secndary structure is the pleated sheet. Pleated sheets are fund in bth glbular prteins and sme fibrus prteins, including the silk prtein f a spider s web. The presence f s many hydrgen bnds makes each silk fiber strnger than a steel strand f the same weight.
61 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.4 Prteins include a diversity f structures, resulting in a wide range f functins Prtein cnfrmatin determines prtein functin. Tertiary structure is determined by interactins amng varius R grups. Much f this flding is due t the interactin f plar r nnplar amin acids with their watery envirnment. This drives the frmatin f tertiary structure Althugh these three interactins are relatively weak, their cumulative effect helps give the prtein a unique shape. Strng cvalent bnds called disulfide bridges that frm between the sulfhydryl grups (SH) f tw cysteine mnmers act t rivet parts f the prtein tgether.

63 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.4 Prteins include a diversity f structures, resulting in a wide range f functins Prtein cnfrmatin determines prtein functin. A plypeptide chain with a given amin acid sequence can spntaneusly arrange itself int a threedimensinal shape determined and maintained by the interactins respnsible fr secndary and tertiary structure. The flding ccurs as the prtein is synthesized within the cell.
64 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.4 Prteins include a diversity f structures, resulting in a wide range f functins Prtein cnfrmatin determines prtein functin. Prtein structure als depends n the physical and chemical cnditins f the prtein s envirnment. Alteratins in ph, salt cncentratin, temperature, r ther factrs can unravel r denature a prtein. These frces disrupt the weak chemical bnds and interactins within a prtein that maintain its shape. Because it is misshapen, a denatured prtein is bilgically inactive
65 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.4 Prteins include a diversity f structures, resulting in a wide range f functins Prtein cnfrmatin determines prtein functin. Mst prteins becme denatured if they are transferred frm an aqueus envirnment t a nnplar slvent. The plypeptide chain reflds s that its hydrphbic regins face utward, tward the slvent. Other denaturatin agents include chemicals that disrupt the hydrgen bnds, inic bnds, and disulfide bridges that maintain a prtein s shape. Denaturatin can als be caused by heat, which disrupts the weak interactins that stabilize cnfrmatin. This explains why extremely high fevers can be fatal. Prteins in the bld becme denatured by the high bdy temperatures
66 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.4 Prteins include a diversity f structures, resulting in a wide range f functins Prtein cnfrmatin determines prtein functin. The flding f many prteins is assisted by chapernins, r chaperne prteins. Chapernins d nt specify the final structure f a plypeptide but rather wrk t segregate and prtect the plypeptide while it flds spntaneusly. Mlecular systems in the cell interact with chapernins, marking incrrectly flded prteins fr reflding r fr destructin. Accumulatin f incrrectly flded plypeptides is assciated with many diseases, including Alzeimer s, Parkinsn s, and mad cw disease

Nucleic acids are plymers made f nucletide mnmers rganized as plynucletides, mlecules f either DNA r RNA Each nucletide cnsists f three parts: a nitrgenus base, a pentse sugar, and ne r mre phsphate grups. There are tw classes f nitrgenus bases
77 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.5 Nucleic acids stre, transmit, and help express hereditary infrmatin A nucleic acid strand is a plymer f nucletides. The nitrgenus bases are rings f carbn and nitrgen that cme in tw types: purines and pyrimidines. Pyrimidines have a single six-membered ring f carbn and nitrgen atms. There are three different pyrimidines: cytsine (C), thymine (T), and uracil (U) Thymine is fund nly in DNA and uracil is fund nly in RNA. Purines have a six-membered ring jined t a five-membered ring. The tw purines are adenine (A) and guanine (G).

79 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.5 Nucleic acids stre, transmit, and help express hereditary infrmatin A nucleic acid strand is a plymer f nucletides. The pentse jined t the nitrgenus base is ribse in nucletides f RNA and dexyribse in DNA. The nly difference between the sugars is the lack f an xygen atm n carbn 2 in dexyribse. Because the atms in bth the nitrgenus base and the sugar are numbered, the sugar atms are distinguished by a prime ( ) after the number. Thus, the secnd carbn in the sugar ring is the 2 (2 prime) carbn, and the carbn that sticks up frm the ring is the 5 carbn. The cmbinatin f a pentse and a nitrgenus base is a nucleside.

The sequence f bases alng a DNA r mrna plymer is unique fr each gene. Because genes are nrmally hundreds t thusands f nucletides lng, the number f pssible base cmbinatins is virtually limitless. The linear rder f bases in a gene specifies the rder f amin acids the primary structure f a prtein, which in turn determines three-dimensinal structure and functin.

DNA mlecules have tw plynucletide strands that spiral arund an imaginary axis t frm a duble helix. The sugar-phsphate backbnes f the tw plynucletides are n the utside f the helix. The tw backbnes run in ppsite 5 t 3 directins frm each ther, an arrangement referred t as antiparallel. The tw plynucletides r strands are held tgether by hydrgen bnds between the paired bases.
83 Structure and Functin f Large Bi Mlecules: Mlecules f Life 5.5 Nucleic acids stre, transmit, and help express hereditary infrmatin Inheritance is based n replicatin f the DNA duble helix Prir t cell divisin, each f the strands serves as a template t rder nucletides in a new cmplementary strand. This results in tw identical cpies f the riginal duble-stranded DNA mlecule, which are then distributed t the daughter cells. This mechanism ensures that a full set f genetic infrmatin is transmitted whenever a cell reprduces This type f cpying is called semicnservative replicatin because each new mlecule cnserves ne f the riginal strands
