A scientific discipline to explain life at the molecular level
uses the tools and terminology of chemistry to describe the various
feature of living things
offer insights into the treatment of diseases e.g. cancer, diabetes
etc.
Offer answers to :
e.g.
what are we made of?
how do we work?
why we react in a certain way?
1. Biomolecule
2. Water chemistry
3. Protein : Structure & metabolism
4. Enzyme : Properties & Kinetics
5. Carbohydrate : structure & metabolism
6. Lipid : Classes & Metabolism
7. Aerobic metabolism
At the end of this topic, you should be able to :

Biomolecules
• Biomolecules are compound of carbon and hydrogen (CH)
• Four major classes of biomolecules & building blocks:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Carbohydrate  sugars
Protein  amino acids
Lipids  fatty acids
Nucleic acids  nucleotides
What are the functions of biomolecules:
1. Synthesize larger molecules
2. Carry out special biological functions e.g ATP
3. Take part in complex reaction pathways

• Most
biomolecules
contain more than
1 fn gp.
e.g. sugar
molecules
Several
hydroxyl gp
Aldehyde gp
Sugar and carbohydrates
• Contain alcohol groups & aldehydes/ketones
• Simple/monomer : monosaccharide
 glucose, fructose, ribose, galactose
• Polymer: polysaccharide
 starch & cellulose; glycogen
• Complex :
 nucleotide : contain ribose / deoxyribose
 glycoprotein : protein contain carbohydrate
 glycolipid : lipid contain carbohydrate.

Amino acids, peptides and protein
•
A.a. contains :
1. amino group
2. carboxylic
acid group
3. side chain
gp/R group
Amino acids are linked together by
peptide bonds
Polypeptides : peptides ( up to 50 a.a)
protein (longer)
Fatty acids and lipids
• Contain :
1. one carboxylic acid
2. with long HC chain
•Are monocarboxylic acids
• Usually contain even number of C atoms
• water insoluble
• E storage
O
Alkyl gp
Contains
C & H atoms
RCH2

Carboxyl
gp
• Monounsaturated f.a. = contain one double bond
• Polyunsaturated f.a. = contain two or more double bond
• Saturated f.a = only single bond (saturated with hydrogens!)
• one carboxylic acid with even C number & no branching
Fatty acids are combined with one glycerol to form a fat
molecule  triglycerol // triacylglycerol //TAG
Through a process :esterification/dehydration/condensation
Nucleotides and nucleic acids
Contain :
1. 5C sugar
2. A nitrogenous base
3. Phosphate gp.
Base consist of purine or pyrimidine.
e.g. ATP
e.g. DNA/ RNA
Complementary base pairing
DNA : A-T ; C-G
RNA: A-U ; C-G;

Assembling small molecules into polymeric
macromolecules needs energy
Breaking polymeric molecules into smaller
molecule produces energy
BIOCHEMICAL PROCESSES
All life processes consist of chemical reaction catalyzed by enzymes
What are the primary functions of metabolism?
1. To acquire and use energy
2. To synthesize molecules needed for cellular structure & function
3. For growth & development
4. To remove waste & other toxins
Biochemical reactions involve enzyme catalysis
Most common reaction types:
1. Nucleophilic substitution
2. Elimination
3. Addition
4. Isomerization
5. Oxidation-reduction / redox reaction
Nucleophilic substitution
Def: one atom or gp substituted for another

Nucleophilic Substitution-acyl

Addition:

Oxidation-reduction
Open up your text book: find out what is oxidation and reduction.
In biochemistry redox reactions are usually recognized by the following
changes:
• Oxidation occurs when a molecule loses two hydrogens and/or gains an
oxygen. (-2H & +O
@ -2H @ +O)
• Reduction occurs when a molecule gains two hydrogens and/or loses
an oxygen. ( +2H & -O @ +2H @ -O)

•Reduction occur as a molecule loses
oxygen and /or gain hydrogen
