What the heck is an ORGANIC MACROMOLECULE?
• ORGANIC – found in living things• MACRO – large / big
• All organic molecules are composed mainly of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen with other atoms such as:
• Nitrogen, Phosphorous, Sulfur
![Page 3: INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC MACROMOLECULES. What the heck is an ORGANIC MACROMOLECULE? ORGANIC – found in living things MACRO – large / big All organic molecules](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e545503460f94b4b40b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Basic organization
• For all macromolecules, there is a basic overall organization

How big is big?
• To give you an idea…
CO2
AMU: 40Glucose (C6H12O6)

Why study organic macromolecules?
• Can’t understand how something is built without knowing what it’s built out of
• These molecules form the basis of the structure of living things
• FORM AND FUNCTION – this statement refers to the fact that how something is SHAPED will determine what it can DO

Form and Function

NUTRIENT PROCESSING
![Page 8: INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC MACROMOLECULES. What the heck is an ORGANIC MACROMOLECULE? ORGANIC – found in living things MACRO – large / big All organic molecules](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e545503460f94b4b40b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Organic compounds
• Organic compounds have specific methods of representation
![Page 9: INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC MACROMOLECULES. What the heck is an ORGANIC MACROMOLECULE? ORGANIC – found in living things MACRO – large / big All organic molecules](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e545503460f94b4b40b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
So they look all the same?
• The carbon atoms form the basic backbone of each macromolecule
• If all macromolecules are essentially made up of carbon and hydrogen, what makes each one physically and therefore, chemically different?
![Page 10: INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC MACROMOLECULES. What the heck is an ORGANIC MACROMOLECULE? ORGANIC – found in living things MACRO – large / big All organic molecules](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e545503460f94b4b40b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What makes them different
• Each macromolecule differs in how long the carbon backbone is, but also, what “additives” there are to the backbone chain
• These functional groups give each macromolecule different characteristics – for example making it more polar and therefore hydrophilic
![Page 11: INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC MACROMOLECULES. What the heck is an ORGANIC MACROMOLECULE? ORGANIC – found in living things MACRO – large / big All organic molecules](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e545503460f94b4b40b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Functional groups• Hydroxyl groups• Carboxyl groups
• Amino groups and sulfhydryl groups
• Phosphate groupsPhosphate

Major macromolecules that we rely on
• Organisms therefore rely on 4 major classes of organic macrmolecules – all of which are basically a hydrocarbon chain with various functional groups attached to it

Carbohydrates
• These serve many purposes including:

Dehydration synthesis
• This is accomplished by the use of enzymes in the human body – it doesn’t occur spontaneously on its own – if it did, think about what would happen every single time you contacted water!
• Therefore, some small bodied animals – kangaroo mouse that lives in the desert – can depend on this anabolic process to provide them with water – they don’t have to rely on exterior water sources

Relation • Similar molecules – they are related because RNA
is the working copy of DNA• Think about it this way: DNA cannot leave the
nucleus – it is the main blueprint

Protein folding
• Proteins are complex – there are 4 levels of organization
Secondary to tertiary structures are created by the folding of proteins on themselves due to the interaction of parts of the amino acid chain with itself
