11 Topic 2: Molecular biology (21 hours)
2.1 Molecules to metabolism: Living organisms control their composition by a complex web of chemical reactions. Nature of science: Falsification of theories—the artificial synthesis of urea helped to falsify vitalism. Understandings: Molecular biology explains living processes in terms of the chemical substances involved. Carbon atoms can form four covalent bonds allowing a diversity of stable compounds to exist. Life is based on carbon compounds including carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. Metabolism is the web of all the enzyme-catalysed reactions in a cell or organism. Anabolism is the synthesis of complex molecules from simpler molecules including the formation of macromolecules from monomers by condensation reactions. Catabolism is the breakdown of complex molecules into simpler molecules including the hydrolysis of macromolecules into monomers. Applications and skills: Application: Urea as an example of a compound that is produced by living organisms but can also be artificially synthesized. Skill: Drawing molecular diagrams of (alpha-D and beta-D) glucose, D-ribose, a saturated fatty acid and a generalized amino acid (using R). Skill: Identification of biochemicals such as sugars (mono- and di-saccharides), lipids (triglycerides and phospholipids, saturated and unsaturated) or amino acids (R groups do not need to be memorized) from molecular diagrams. Skill: Food tests such as the use of iodine to identify starch or Benedict’s reagent to identify reducing sugars could be carried out.

12 Biology Journal 8/18/2014 2.1 Homework Quiz! What are the 4 most common elements found in living things? (you can use their atomic symbols to answer) Glucose and cellulose are examples of: Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic acids True or false: In the process of anabolism, polymers are broken down into their component monomers. What are the names of any 2 nucleic acids? Give the names of 2 common examples of proteins.

13 All of these represent the same substance: glucose
All of these represent the same substance: glucose. There are many ways of expressing the idea of a molecule. C6H12O6 Chemical Formula Lewis-stick drawing Space-filling model Skeletal-line Drawing Ball and Stick model

14 Rules for Skeletal Line Drawings:
Skeletal Line Drawings are often used when representing large, complex biological molecules. Rules for Skeletal Line Drawings: Lines are covalent bonds C’s are “corners” H’s attached to C’s are not drawn (remember: C makes 4 bonds) Other elements, and H’s attached to them, are shown with their symbol This is nicotine. What’s its chemical formula? H H C C C C H C H C H2 C H C C C10H14N2 H2 H2

15 Rules for Skeletal Line Drawings:
Lines are covalent bonds C’s are “corners” H’s attached to C’s are not drawn (remember: C makes 4 bonds) Other elements, and H’s attached to them, are shown with their symbol This is Cocaine. It can be turned into crack. What’s its chemical formula? H H H C C C10H14N2 C C C C H2 C C H H C H

16 Rules for Skeletal Line Drawings:
Lines are covalent bonds C’s are “corners” H’s attached to C’s are not drawn (remember: C makes 4 bonds) Other elements, and H’s attached to them, are shown with their symbol This is adrenaline, which is stored in your adrenal glands, and released as part of the “fight or flight response.” H C C C C H C H2 C C H C C H H3 C9H13NO3

17 These are the same molecule, called a fatty acid
These are the same molecule, called a fatty acid. They are represented in different ways.

19 Highest level of certainty in science corroborated unquestionably
The process of science is based on a system of: Making hypotheses Testing them through rigorous collection of empirical evidence (can be measured and recorded) Peer-review of data Statistical analysis Replication Acceptance THEORY! Highest level of certainty in science acceptance corroborated unquestionably repeated corroborated ? hypothesis testing observations hypothesis hypothesis ? not corroborated (evidence does not support hypothesis) “It’s only a theory”

20 The scientific process

21 Falsifiability The purpose of science is to explain and predict.
Falsifiability is the possibility that an statement could be proven false. This does not mean it is false; rather, it means that if the statement were false, then its falsehood could be demonstrated.

22 All humans live forever.
No human lives forever. All humans live forever. Is this falsifiable? No. Is this falsifiable? Falsifiable. It does not seem possible to prove wrong. In theory, one would have to observe a human living forever to falsify that claim. Observing just one dead human could prove the statement wrong.

23

24 A hypothesis, proposition, or theory is "scientific" only if it is, among other things, falsifiable.
Unfalsifiable statements are non-scientific.

25 The theory that the molecules of living things came only from a special “vital principal” was proven false, when urea was synthesized artificially. Urea was discovered in the 1720’s in urine. In 1828 Friedrich Wohler synthesized urea! Silver isocyanate It was assumed to be a product of the kidneys. Yea, I like pee. So what?! Ammonium chloride At the time, it was thought that these compounds could only be made with the help of a “vital principle”. This “vital principle” causes the phenomena of life to happen, rather than chemical or physical forces. If urea had been synthesized without a “vital principle” then other organic compounds could as well.

31

32 Generalized Amino Acid
2.1 Draw a molecular diagram of alpha-D glucose, D-ribose, a saturated fatty acid, and a generalized amino acid (showing R group) Generalized Amino Acid

33 This is an an amino acid. (this one is called asparagine)
R group (in this case CH2CONH2) Amine (NH2) Carboxyl (COOH) Alpha carbon (the middle C where the R group is attached)

34 Drawing structures Glucose – C6H12O6 6-membered ring with a side chain
5 carbons in the ring, one carbon in the side chain #C’s with 1 on the right, then clockwise Hydroxyl’s (-OH) on C’s 1, 2, 3, 4 point down, down, up, down Ribose – C5H10O5 5-membered ring with side chain 4 carbons in the ring, one carbon in the side chain #C’s with 1 on the right, then clockwise Hydroxyl’s (-OH) on C’s 1, 2, 3, point up, down, down Generalized amino acid C atom in the center is bonded to four things Amine group –NH2 Carboxyl group – COOH Hydrogen atom –H R group Saturated fatty acid C’s form an unbranched chain All single bonds in a saturated fatty acid # of C’s is between 14 and 20 At one end of the chain, the C is part of a carboxyl group At the other end of the chain, the C is bonded to three H atoms All other C’s are bonded to two H atoms

35 Lipids (aka fats) have repeating CH2 units
Lipids (aka fats) have repeating CH2 units. This gives them lots in energy (calories) in the numerous C-H bonds. Most mammals (humans included), store their extra energy as the lipid triglyceride, shown below.

36 Saturated fats have the maximum number of H’s.
They are crammed, or “saturated” with H’s Thus, they have the most calories Animal fats are usually saturated.

37 Plant fats are usually unsaturated.
Unsaturated fats have one (monounsaturated) or more (polyunsaturated) double bonds. With double bonds, there is fewer room for H’s Thus, they have fewer calories, and are generally “healthier.” Plant fats are usually unsaturated.

49 Amino Acids Have amine group (NH2), carboxyl group (COOH), alpha carbon, and side chain (R). Make polymers called polypeptides, or proteins. Tyrosine Serine Glutamine

50 There are 20 (or more, depending on how you count) amino acids used in the human body.

51 Anabolism = building a polymer from monomers. Makes H2O (condensation)
Ex: your body making hair Catabolism = Breaking down a polymer into monomers. Consumes H2O (hydrolysis). Ex: digesting a muffin

52 Build a Protein through condensation anabolism!
A maximum of 4 students in a group. (more than 4 names on a model will result in ½ credit) Look at your sequence and ID the amino acids you need. Label each amino acid with a marker. “Chop” off the H and OH from the appropriate molecules, and attach them together, show 1 molecule “drop” of H2O is made and attach it nearby. Bond all of the amino acids in the correct sequence. Label what sequence number you have is on your model!
