Standard 8

By: Andrew & LaBarron

Protein Basics

• Proteins are made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen

• These elements are joined into strands called Amino acids

• Proteins do many important jobs such as cellular repairs, growth, and helping the human body work

• It is the main structural molecule in the human body

The Building Blocks Of ProteinThe Building Blocks Of Protein

• Proteins are made up of Amino Acids which form long chains called polypeptides

• The arrangement of the Acids affects the chemical composition of the proteins

• There are 20 different amino acids found in nature

• All amino acids are exactly the same where they can be joined in Covalent bonds

• Because of this any amino acid can be joined to another amino acid

• Proteins are made up of Amino Acids which form long chains called polypeptides

• The arrangement of the Acids affects the chemical composition of the proteins

• There are 20 different amino acids found in nature

• All amino acids are exactly the same where they can be joined in Covalent bonds

• Because of this any amino acid can be joined to another amino acid

The Hungry Proteins

• Some proteins are enzymes

• Proteins all have a specific complex shape

• Because of that substrates (the reactants of an enzyme catalyzed reactions) bind into a active site on the enzyme perfectly

• This is referred to as a lock and key

• They remain bound together until the reaction is done

DNA & RNA Basics• DNA is made up of Nucleotides • Nucleotides are made up of three parts: a deoxyribose

molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.• There are 4 different bases in DNA: adenine, guanine,

cytosine, and thymine• RNA is also made up of Nucleotides but there are some

differences • RNA sort of like a disposable copy of DNA • RNA can be used for many different things but they are

mainly used for producing protien• Both carry genetic information, can carry proteins, and

can make copies of themselves

DNA vs RNA• RNA is like DNA except for three things

1.The sugar in RNA is a ribosome is a ribose instead of deoxyribose

2.RNA is generally single-stranded

3.RNA contains uracil in place of thymine

4.It also can transport Amino Acids

Pairing of DNA & RNA• DNA bases Adenine (A), Thymine

(T), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) • In RNA though they have Uralic

(U) instead of Thymine• In the DNA Double Helix

T and A and G and C connect together and when RNA comes off DNA T gets replace with U

• When DNA replicates then the order of the bases is mirror image

• Instead of AGTC it would be TCAG

DNA and Your Genes and Chromosomes

• Chromosomes are made up of DNA

• The chromosomes are wrapped around proteins called histones that are bundled together

• Things inside chromosomes are called genes
