Organic Macromolecules
Polymerization is…
– the forming of large organic compounds
(polymers) by the joining of smaller repeating
units called monomers

How does polymerization occur?
By Dehydration Synthesis: the removal of a
water molecule to form a new bond.

How are polymers broken?
• by hydrolysis - literally, “Water Splitting”

• Add water to break bonds

Carbonyl Groups

Important Energy Source
Cellular Structures
Monomer:
– Monosaccharides
• Polymers:
– Disaccharides
– Polysaccharides
Monosaccharides
Monosaccharides (simple sugars)
– Contain 3-7 Carbons each
• Examples: Glucose
Glucose, Galactose, Fructose
Disaccharides
Disaccharides (two sugars) – joined by
dehydration synthesis
• Examples: Sucrose
Sucrose, Maltose, Lactose
– Maltose = Glucose + Glucose
– Lactose = Glucose + Galactose
Glucose
Fructose
Polysaccharides
Polysaccharides (many sugars, usually
thousands)
• Examples: Starch
Starch, Glycogen, Cellulose
Chloroplast
Starch
Liver Cell
Cellulose
Glycogen
Plant Cells
Starch and Cellulose Structures
(Plant Polysaccharides)
ά – linkages (cis- formation) are easily hydrolyzed, while β linkages (trans-formation)are not
Glycogen and Chitin
(Animals Polysaccharide)
• Glycogen = glucose
polymer
– Stored in
liver/muscle
• Chitin = structural
polymer in
exoskeletons
Lipids
• Elements: C, H, O with H:O ratio > 2:1
• Hydrophobic
• Lipids function in:
– Energy (E) storage,
– forming cell membranes,
– and as chemical messengers
(ex. hormones)
• Monomers: glycerol, fatty acids, sometimes
phosphate groups
• Polymers:
– Fats (triglycerides)
– Phospholipids
– Steroids
Triglycerides
Fats (Triglycerides)
– Glycerol + 3 Fatty Acids
– Saturated = No Double Bonds (solid)
– Unsaturated = Double Bonds (liquid)

– Amphiphilic (“Both” “lover”)

Proteins (Polypeptides)
• Polymers of AA
– 20 AA, all varied in their “R” groups
– 9 essential AA can not be made by the body
• 50% of dry weight of organisms
• Varied fcns: enzymatic, structural,
hormonal, transport, storage, mvmt,
defense, etc.
• Protein function unique with 3-D shape
Proteins
•
Protein monomers are called amino acids
– Peptide Bond:

Folding
• Interactions btwn side

– H bonds
– Ionic Bonding (+/-)
– Hydrophobic
Interactions
– Disulfide Bridges

Factors That Affect Protein
Formation
• pH
• Salinity
• Temperature (ex.
Boiled egg)
• Denaturization =
unraveling of protein 
loss of shape and
function
• Renaturization can
occur, but not always

Nucleic Acids
• Nucleic Acids
– Informational Polymers: Code for all of the
proteins in an organism
– Monomers: Nucleotides
• Phosphate Group
• Pentose 5-C Sugar
– Ribose or deoxyribose
• Nitrogenous base
– Purines (A, G)
– Pyrimidines (T, C, U)
Nucleic Acids
• Polymers
– DNA
– RNA (tRNA, mRNA,
rRNA)
• DNA directs RNA
synthesis
• RNA directs protein
synthesis
Base Pairing Rules
• DNA Base Pair Rules
C=G
A=T
• RNA Base Pair Rules

A=U
