NOTE FOR THE CHAPTER ----BIOMOLECULES---XII

The various types of compounds which are found to be essential for animal for animal life:Carbohydrates: e.g. starch and sugar Lipids: e.g. ghee and butter Proteins: e.g. complex molecules present in meat and pulses Vitamins: e.g. present in food in traces ormones: present in food or synthesi!ed by the body The molecules of the above listed compounds form the basis of the life. "uch molecules of organic compounds which build up life system and re#uired for the growth and the maintenance are called $%&'L(C)L(". CELLULAR ENERGETICS: FREE ENERGY CHANGES IN BIOLOGICAL REACTIONSCellular reactions follow the basic principles of thermodynamics. &nly those reactions should be spontaneous for which *+ negative. ,ll the carbolic reactions proceed with decrease of energy-*+./0but some important cellular reactions proceed even *+ is positive.e.g. Photosynthesis in plants for which *+1/. 'any anabolic reactions proceed with increase of free energy i.e. *+1/. , very common reaction which provides energy in many cellular reactions is the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate -,TP0. The biochemical unit of energy is ,TP. The cell obtains energy for the synthesis of ,TP through photosynthesis 2 catabolism of nutrients such as carbohydrates and lipids3 this all occurs through coupled reaction. WHY ATP MOLECULE IS ENERGY RICH MOLECULE? The ,TP molecule is consists of four negatively charged oxygen atoms which are close to each other4 the repulsive forces between them are very high. These forces ma5es them high energy molecules3 actually this energy is stored in oxygen-phosphorous bonds. The oxygen bonds between the two phosphoric acid residues are high energy phosphate bonds. 6uring hydrolysis these bond brea53 this reduces the number of oxygen atoms in the molecules and the repulsive forces between o-atoms decreases3 and as a result large amount of energy is released. The energy released during this process depends upon the products formed and the Ph of the solution. ,'P and ,6P molecules get converted to ,TP molecules during this process. CARBOHYDRATES: The polyhydroxy aldehydes3 polyhydroxy 5etones3 or large polymeric molecules which on hydrolysis produce polyhydroxy aldehydes3 polyhydroxy 5etones3 are called C,7$& 867,T(".

CALSSIFICATION OF CARBOHYDRATES: Carbohydrates can be classified on the basis of %0 $ehaviour on hydrolysis ii0 taste ON BEHAVIOUR they are classified into 'onosaccharide3 &ligosaccharides3 and Polysaccharides. MONOSACCHRIDES: These are simple carbohydrate molecules which can not be hydrolysed into many simpler molecules. (ach molecule represents a complete carbohydrate molecule unit. They contain < to = carbon atoms therefore their general formula -C >/0 n. (xamples: - glucose3 fructose3 galactose3 and ribose.

OLIGOSACCHRIDES:- The carbohydrates whose molecules on hydrolysis give > to ? molecules of monosaccharides either same or different are called oligosaccharides.

(xamples: - +lucose3 fructose3 "ucrose3 Lactose are sugars. N$)-S'(a s:- Tasteless polysaccharides which are insoluble in water. They are generally amorphous in nature. (xamples: - Cellulose and "tarch. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION --- MONOSACCHARIDES %n addition to hydroxyl group they either contain aldehydic or 5etonic group. The aldehydic being monovalent is either present at the end of the carbon chain. ence such monosaccharides are called ,L6&"(. &n the other hand 5etonic group being divalent can be present anywhere on the carbon chain. %n natural monosaccharides this group is present normally at the second carbon atom. ence they are also termed as F(T&"(. 6epending upon the no. of c-atoms these molecules are termed as trios3 tetrose3 pentose3 and hexose. Fetose and aldose are added to the prefixes to the no. of catoms. CHARACTERISTICS: - They are sweet and water soluble and when heated they get charred. 6ue to the presence of / -group they can be easily acetylated. They can be reduced to sugar alcohols. They can be oxidi!ed at the aldehydic carbon to aldonic acid. Two molecules of monosaccharides combine with an elimination of water - >/0 molecule to give a disaccharide. They undergo oxidation3 reduction3 acetylation3 react with hydroxylamine3 phenyl hydra!ine and fermentation. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ------ DISACCHARIDES* %ts main source is sugarcane and beet. These include "ucrose3 'altose3 and Lactose. "ucrose is hydrolysed by both en!ymes maltase and invertase."ucrose is both a G-glucoside and H-fructoside. ence it can be concluded that "ucrose consists of G-glucose and H-fructose. They are held together by G3 H-glycosidic lin5age. INVERT SUGAR: - Cane sugar is dextrorotatory. &n hydrolysis it gives dextrorotatory glucose and laevorotatory fructose. Therefore a e#uimolar mixture of glucose and fructose with opposite signs are called inversion of sugar or invert "ugar.

POLYSACCHARIDES: - There can be linear or branched chain polysaccharides. Polysaccharides are amorphous3 tasteless and mostly insoluble in water. These include starch3 dextrin3 cellulose3 and glycogens. Their main functions are storage of food. They can further be classified as omopolysaccharides and etropolysaccharides. omopolysaccharides contain same type of monosaccharides. (xample: - glycogen3 starch3 and cellulose are polymers of glucose. etropolysaccharides: - they contain two or more different monosaccharides. (xample: - +ums. STARCH: - %t is odourless3 tasteless3 and insoluble in water. %t is amorphous and white substance. Ihen boiled itJs granules swells and burst to form a colloidal solution called starch paste. %t is a polymer of G-glucose and composed of two components amylase(20%) and amylopectin(80%) . ,mylose is water soluble whereas amylopectin is water insoluble. The structure of glucose is similar as that of amylopectin. ,mylose is linear polymer whereas amylopectin is a branched one. AMINO + ACIDS: - The carboxylic acids containing amino --E >0 group attached to any carbon atoms other than carboxylic carbon are called amino acids. ,n amino acid always contains one -atom3 one 7 group3 one C// group and one E > group and they are attached to single carbon atom. %n a#ueous solution the C// group looses a proton to form carboxalate ion and the E > group gains this proton to form KE < ion. ence in a#ueous solution amino and carboxyl groups are in the ioni!ed form and amino acid molecule exists as a dipolar ion. This dipolar ion is called ,-i##" -i$). ,mino acids in dipolar form are amphoteric in nature. Therefore in acidic solution3 an amino acid exists as a positive ion3 and therefore it migrates to the negative electrode -cathode0 when placed in an electrical field. %n a basic solution3 an amino acid it exists negative ion and therefore it migrates towards the positive electrode when placed in electrical field. The p at which the amino acid molecule does not migrate to either of the electrodes is called the ISO-ELECTRIC POINT. D- L- CONFIGURATIONS OF AMINO ACIDS : - The G- carbon atom in all the amino acids -except glycine0 is asymmetric -chiral0. Therefore amino acids can exist in two stereo isomeric forms3 i.e. 6 and L forms. These two forms are the mirror images of each other but are non-superimposable on each other. Thy are drawn with the reference of glyceraldehydes3 in which the E >-group lies on the left hand side of the c- atom in L- configuration and the E >group lies on the right side of the c- atom in 6- configuration. ,ll natural occurring amino acids are L-isomers. Proteins consist of only L-amino acids. The "ss")#ia% a.i)$ aci!s which must be present in our food are: - %soleucine3 Leucine3 Lysine3 'ethionine3 Phenylalanine Threonine3 Tryptophan3 Valine3 ,rginine and istidine. PEPTIDES: - The compounds formed by the condensation of two or more3 or same or different amino acids are called peptides. 6uring the formation of peptide3 the amino -E >0 - group of one of the G-amino acid and the carboxylic -C// 0 C group of another molecule of the same or the different G-amino acid get condensed with the elimination of the water molecule. 6uring this process a bond of the type C C/E - is formed between the two amino acids. This amide lin5age is called /"/#i!" + %i)0a(". The peptide formed due to the condensation of only two3 three or four molecules of the same or different amino acids is called dipeptide4 tripeptide and tetrapeptide bonds respectively. ,ll the peptides contain a free amino -E >0 - group at one end and a free carboxylic -C// 0 - group at the other end. These are called end-groups or the terminal groups. "ome important biological peptides are &xytocin-nanopeptide3 Vasopressin- nanopeptide3 ,ngiotensin-octapeptide. PROTIENS: - Proteins are complex nitrogenous organic compounds and are essential for the growth and development of the body. Proteins are macromolecules in which large numbers of amino acids are lin5ed with peptide-bonds. &n hydrolysis they give amino-acids3 in other words they are polypeptides of very high molecular mass3 -:/ A C :/9g2mol0. (gg3 meat3 fish3 pulses3 and mil5 are the good source of proteins. Eormally there are >/ amino-acids are present in proteins3 and another six are found in the special tissues. The amino- acids differ in the side chain groups -70. the

properties of amino-acids depend upon the nature of side chain. The human can synthesi!e :/ out of >/ amino-acids found in proteins. The other :/ must be supplied in the diet. Therefore they are called "ss")#ia% a.i)$-aci!s. Lac5 of proteins can cause a disease called Fwashior5ar. The elements present in most of the proteins are carbon3 hydrogen3 oxygen3 nitrogen and sulphur3 iron3 magnesium3 phosphorous3 etc. CLASSIFICATION OF PROTIENS: - They are classified on the basis of chemical composition.

The non-amino-acid group of the protein is called prothestic group. This group controls the biological functions of the proteins. ConMugated proteins are further classified into ----------------------------------------------------Lipoproteins ------these contain lipids and amino-acids. The prothestic group in them is lipids.

G%$4'%a P $#"i)s:Fi4 $'s P $#"i)s:- They are consists of linear3 thread-li5e polypeptide chain which are arranged and twisted to form long strands -fibers0 and they are held together by hydrogen bonds therefore the intermolecular forces of attractions are very strong. They are insoluble in water and #uite stable. (xample: - collagen of tendons3 Feratin in s5in3 hairs and nails3 Dibroin in sil53 'yosin in muscles are Dibrous Proteins. G%$4'%a P $#"i)s:- The proteins in which polypeptides are tightly folded into a compact form are called +lobular Proteins. %n these proteins the hydrocarbon -lipohillic0 ends are pushed inwards while the polar hydrophilic part is oriented outwards therefore these proteins are water soluble and very sensitive towards temperature and p . (xamples: - ,ll the en!ymes3 many hormones such as insulin3 thryoglobins3 antibodies3 aemoglobin3 fibrinogen3 albumin3 and venoms of sna5es3 scorpion3 wasp3 and bees are globular proteins.

The native state of a protein is dictated by the amino acid se#uence in the protein. Proteins are very sensitive to heat3 acids3 al5alies and even to the electrolytes. Properties of globular proteins change altogether on heating or on treatment with acids2al5alies or electrolytes. &n heating3 water-soluble globular proteins precipitate out due to formation of water-insoluble fibrous proteins.The coagulated protein is called as denatured protein. The process which leads to change in physical and biological properties of proteins without affecting its chemical composition is called as denaturation of proteins. 6enaturation causes changes only in secondary3 and tertiary structures of proteins. The primary structure of any protein does not change due to denaturation. 6enaturation may be reversible in some cases. 6enaturation is caused by following factors Change in the p %ncrease in temperature Presence of acids3 al5alies3 or salts (xposure to ultraviolet rays or x- rays The most common examples are $oiling of egg Preparation of cheese from mil5.
