Multipurpose
molecules
Proteins
 Most structurally & functionally diverse group of
biomolecules
 Function:
 involved in almost everything
 Metabolism
 Support
 Transport
 Regulation
 Motion
Metabolism
 Enzymes
 Biological catalysts – speed up chemical reactions
 Digestive enzymes aid in hydrolysis
o Lipase
o Amylase
o Lactase
o Protease
 Molecular Biology
o Polymerase
o Ligase
 Industry
o Dairy, baby food, rubber, beer, photography, contact
lense cleaner
Support
 Structural proteins
 Keratin – hair and nails
 Collagen – supports ligaments, tendons, and skin
 Silk – cocoons and spider webs
Transport
 Channel and carrier proteins in the cell
membrane
 Allows substances to enter and exit the cell
 Transport molecules in blood
 Hemoglobin – transports oxygen in the blood
Defense
 Antibodies
 Combat bacteria and viruses
Regulation
 Hormones
 Intercellular messengers that influence metabolism
 Insulin – regulates the amount of glucose in the
blood and in cells
 Human growth hormone – its presence determines
the height of an individual
 Receptor Proteins
 Built into the membranes of nerve cells
 Detect chemical signals (neurotransmitters)
released by other nerve cells
Motion
 Muscle contraction
 Actin and myosin – make up muscle fibers
 Motor proteins within the cell
 Allow cell components to move from place to place
 Flagella- move the cell
 Cilia- move contents around the cell
Proteins
 Structure:
 monomer = amino acids
 20 different amino acids
 12 made by body
 8 essential amino acids (must get from food)
 polymer = polypeptide
 protein can be one or more polypeptide chains
folded & bonded together
 large & complex molecules
 complex 3-D shape
Rubisco
hemoglobin
growth
hormones
Amino acids
 Structure:
 central carbon (α carbon)
 amino group
 carboxyl group (acid)
 R group (side chain)
 variable group
 confers unique
chemical properties
of the amino acid —N—
H

C—OH
||
O
R

H
Nonpolar amino acids
 nonpolar & hydrophobic
Polar amino acids
 polar or charged & hydrophilic
Sulfur containing amino acids
 Form disulfide bridges
 cross links betweens sulfurs in amino acids
You wondered
why perms
smelled like
rotten eggs?
H-S – S-H
Building proteins
 Peptide bonds
 linking NH2 of one amino acid to
COOH of another
 C–N bond
 N terminus – C terminus
peptide
bond
dehydration synthesis
Protein structure & function
 Function depends on structure
 3-D structure
 twisted, folded, coiled into unique shape
hemoglobin
collagen
pepsin
Primary (1°) structure
 Order of amino acids in chain
 amino acid sequence determined by
gene (DNA)
 slight change in amino acid sequence
can affect protein’s structure & it’s
function
 even just one amino acid change can
make all the difference!
lysozyme: enzyme
in tears & mucus
that kills bacteria
Sickle cell anemia
Secondary (2°) structure
 “Local folding”
 folding along short
sections of polypeptide
 interaction between
adjacent amino acids
 H bonds between
backbones (O:H)
 -helix
 -pleated sheet
 Fibrous proteins – only
have secondary structure
 Keratin
 Silk
Secondary (2°) structure
Tertiary (3°) structure
 “Whole molecule folding”
 created when the secondary
structure fold and form bonds to
stabilize the structure into a
unique shape
 determined by interactions
between R groups
 Hydrophobic interactions
 anchored by
disulfide bridges
 Ionic Bonds between R groups
 Hydrogen bonds between backbones
 Van der Waals Force (velcro)
 Globular (spherical) proteins – have
tertiary structure
 enzymes
Quaternary (4°) structure
 two or more tertiary folded peptide subunits
bonded together to make a functional protein
 Hemoglobin – 4 polypeptides
 Collagen – 3 polypeptides
hemoglobin
collagen =
skin & tendons
Protein structure (review)

hydrophobic interactions,
disulfide bridges, ionic bonds
determined
by DNA
multiple
polypeptides
hydrophobic
interactions
Denature a protein
 Unfolding a protein/changes the shape
 disrupt 3° structure
 pH  temperature
 unravels or denatures protein
 disrupts H bonds, ionic bonds &
disulfide bridges
 destroys functionality
