The Structure and Function of
Large Biological Molecules
,Overview: The Molecules of Life
• All living things are made up of four classes
of large biological molecules:
– carbohydrates,
– lipids,
– proteins, and
– nucleic acids
• Macromolecules
• are large molecules
• composed of thousands of covalently connected atoms
– Concept 2.3 ( for more information)
» A covalent bond is the sharing of a pair of valence
electrons by two atoms
,The Synthesis and Breakdown of Polymers
• Synthesis of polymer from monomers:
– By dehydration reaction
• when two monomers bond together ???
– through the loss of a water molecule
Dehydration removes
a water molecule,
forming a new bond.

,• Breakdown of Polymers to monomers :
– By hydrolysis reaction
• the reverse of the dehydration reaction ??

,The Diversity of Polymers
• Each cell has thousands of different
macromolecules
HO
• Macromolecules vary among
– cells of an organism,
– vary more within a species,
– and vary even more between species
• An immense variety of polymers can be built
from a small set of monomers
, Concept 5.2:
Carbohydrates serve as fuel and
building material
