PPT-Macromolecules of Life

Organic v Inorganic Organic molecules are carbon based they are the second most common molecules found in living things next to water Inorganic molecules are not carbon based exceptions CO 2. Recent studies on protein transduction domains have circumvented this barrier however and have resulted in the delivery of peptides fulllength proteins iron beads liposomes and radioactive isotopes into cells in culture and animal models in vivo Add Hindered-Amine Light Peroxy Radicals E. N. Step and N. J. Turro' Department of Chemistry, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027 M. E. Gande and P. P. Klemchuk Additives Division, CIBA-GEIGY C Abstract Macromolecules and supramolecular complexes are frequently required to enter and exit the nucleus during normal cell function, but access is restricted and exchange to and from the nucleus is A very large molecule consisting of many smaller structural units linked together.. Carbohydrates. What elements can you name in. this carbohydrate?. Carbohydrates. +. =. +. Protein. What elements can you name in. So now are you. finally ready for . some hard stuff??. Percentage of . CHONPS. in living things. C Carbon 18.5%. H Hydrogen 9.56%. O Oxygen 65.0%. N Nitrogen 3.3%. P Phosphorus 1.0%. S Sulfur Trace. The methods of molecular physics are used on macromolecules just as they are for smaller molecules. A special chapter entitled "Macromolecules" can be justified by special methods for the examination Macromole cule (polymer) Functional Groups, Basic Formula Monomer Subgroups Examples Uses Carbo - hydrates C:H:O 1:2:1 Mono - saccharide Monosaccharides - simple sugars Disaccharides - double sugar copyright cmassengale. 2. Organic Compounds. Compounds. that contain . CARBON. are called . organic. .. Macromolecules. are large . organic molecules. .. copyright cmassengale. 3. Carbon (C). Carbon. Matter. Chemistry: study of matter. Matter: any thing that has mass . 3 phases: solid, liquid, gas. Both living organisms and non living things are made up of matter. Atom. The atom is the basic unit of matter. The ability to biosynthesize the 4 major macromolecules. i.e. you can create by yourself- the 4 . major molecules . of life. What is life again?. The reason these are necessary for life is because they are the basic ingredients for the macromolecules:. Macro = Large/Big. Macromolecules. . are . large. . organic molecules. .. 3. Macromolecules. Large organic . molecules. Also . called . POLYMERS. .. Smaller “building . blocks” . are called . MONOMERS. Carbohydrates and Lipids . (Ch. 5-1 and Ch. 5-2). Describe the properties of the monomers and the type of bonds that connect the monomers in biological macromolecules.. Explain how hydrolysis and dehydration synthesis are used to cleave and form covalent bonds between monomers..
