Proteins have many structures, resulting in a wide range of functions
• Proteins account for more than 50% of the dry mass of most cells
• The monomers (building units) of proteins are amino acids.
• Cells use 20 amino acids to make thousands of proteins

Polypeptides
• Polypeptides are polymers of amino acids
• A protein consists of one or more polypeptides
Lysozyme: an antibacterial enzyme (protein) found in human tears.It is made of one polypeptide.
Hemoglobin protein is made of four polypeptides

Four Levels of Protein Structure
• Primary structure
• Secondary structure
• Tertiary structure
• Quaternary structure

• The coils and folds of secondary structure result from hydrogen bonds between atoms of the polypeptide backbone (NOT the amino acid side chain or R-groups).
• Typical secondary structures are a coil called an alpha helix and a folded structure called a beta pleated sheet.

Abdominal glands of thespider secrete silk fibers
made of a structural proteincontaining -pleated sheets.
The radiating strands, madeof dry silk fibers, maintain
the shape of the web.
The spiral strands (capturestrands) are elastic, stretching
in response to wind, rain,and the touch of insects.

• Tertiary structure is determined by interactions between R groups, rather than interactions between backbone constituents
• These interactions between R groups include:
– hydrogen bonds,
– ionic bonds,
– hydrophobic interactions,
– van der Waals interactions
– Strong covalent bonds called disulfide bridges may reinforce the protein’s conformation.

• Quaternary structure results when two or more polypeptide chains form one macromolecule
• Collagen is a fibrous protein consisting of three polypeptides coiled like a rope
• Hemoglobin is a globular protein consisting of four polypeptides: two alpha and two beta chains

Concept 5.5: Nucleic acids store and transmit hereditary information
• The amino acid sequence of a polypeptide is programmed by a unit of inheritance called a gene
• Genes are made of DNA, a nucleic acid
![Page 17: Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Proteins have many structures, resulting in a wide range of functions Proteins.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062719/56649ed95503460f94be7db6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The Roles of Nucleic Acids
• There are two types of nucleic acids:
– Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
– Ribonucleic acid (RNA)
• DNA replicates in order for the cells to divide
• DNA directs the synthesis of messenger RNA (mRNA) and, through mRNA, controls protein synthesis
• Protein synthesis occurs in ribosomes
![Page 18: Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Proteins have many structures, resulting in a wide range of functions Proteins.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062719/56649ed95503460f94be7db6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Concept 3.1 Nucleic Acids Are Informational Macromolecules
• DNA’s information is encoded in the sequence of bases. DNA has two functions:
– Replication
– Information is copied to RNA and used to specify amino acid sequences in proteins.

The Structure of Nucleic Acids
• Nucleic acids are polymers called polynucleotides
• Each polynucleotide is made of monomers called nucleotides
• Each nucleotide consists of:
– a nitrogenous base
– a pentose sugar
– and a phosphate group
![Page 21: Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Proteins have many structures, resulting in a wide range of functions Proteins.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062719/56649ed95503460f94be7db6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Nitrogenous bases
• There are two families of nitrogenous bases:
– Pyrimidines have a single six-membered ring
– Purines have a six-membered ring fused to a five-membered ring.

Pentose sugar
• In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose
• In RNA, the sugar is ribose.

The DNA Double Helix
• A DNA molecule has two polynucleotides spiraling around an imaginary axis, forming a double helix
• The nitrogenous bases in DNA form hydrogen bonds in a complementary fashion: A always pairs with T, and G always pairs with C
