3.13 A protein’s specific shape determines its function
• A polypeptide chain contains hundreds or thousands of amino acids linked by peptide bonds– The amino acid sequence causes the polypeptide to
assume a particular shape– The shape of a protein determines its specific function

3.14 A protein’s shape depends on four levels of structure
• primary structure- unique amino acid sequence– The correct amino acid sequence is determined by
the cell’s genetic information– The slightest change in this sequence affects the
protein’s ability to function

3.14 A protein’s shape depends on four levels of structure
• secondary structure- coiling or folding of the polypeptide as result of H bonds between areas of polypeptide chain– Coiling results in a helical structure called an alpha helix– Folding may lead to a structure called a pleated sheet

3.14 A protein’s shape depends on four levels of structure
• Tertiary structure- overall 3D shape of a protein– results from interactions between the R groups of
the various amino acids– Shape stabilized by clustering of hydrophobic R
groups, H bonds, and ionic & covalent bonds

3.14 A protein’s shape depends on four levels of structure
Quaternary Structure- occurs in proteins with more than one polypeptide; described as globular or fibrous

3.13 A protein’s specific shape determines its function
• If for some reason a protein’s shape is altered, it can no longer function– Denaturation will cause polypeptide chains to
unravel and lose their shape and, thus, their function– Proteins can be denatured by changes in salt
concentration and pH

3.16 Nucleic acids are information-rich polymers of nucleotides
• DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) are composed of monomers called nucleotides– Nucleotides have three parts
– A five-carbon sugar called ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA
– A phosphate group– A nitrogenous base

3.16 Nucleic acids are information-rich polymers of nucleotides
• a polynucleotide forms when the phosphate of one nucleotide bonds to the sugar of the next nucleotide
• DNA double helix-two polynucleotide strands wrap around each other– The two strands are associated because
particular bases always hydrogen bond to one another
– A pairs with T, and C pairs with G, producing base pairs
• RNA is usually a single polynucleotide strand

3.16 Nucleic acids are information-rich polymers of nucleotides
• A particular nucleotide sequence that can instruct the formation of a polypeptide is called a gene– Most DNA molecules consist of millions of base pairs
and, consequently, many genes– These genes, many of which are unique to the species,
determine the structure of proteins and, thus, life’s structures and functions

3.17 EVOLUTION CONNECTION: Lactose tolerance is a recent event in human evolution
• Mutations are alterations in bases or the sequence of bases in DNA– Lactose tolerance is the result of mutations– In many people, the gene that dictates lactose
utilization is turned off in adulthood– Apparently, mutations occurred over time that
prevented the gene from turning off– This is an excellent example of human evolution
