00:03 | All right, good morning y'all. get that. Um See if that |
|
|
00:08 | . No, there. Um It's one that should be better. Is |
|
|
00:15 | better? Not echo back in the . You can hear me. |
|
|
00:18 | thank you. All right. Uh today we got a uh a couple |
|
|
00:23 | things we're gonna be covering. We're to uh this, we didn't cover |
|
|
00:27 | Thursday last week, which are the fluid compartment that shouldn't take us too |
|
|
00:32 | . We'll get through that. And majority of this lecture is going to |
|
|
00:35 | on the biomolecules. There's four basic just distinguishing between those important. We'll |
|
|
00:41 | through all those. And the last we're going to cover today is we're |
|
|
00:44 | look at enzymes and uh in a generic sense, what do enzymes |
|
|
00:49 | All right. Uh Once we understand , we're gonna have a uh a |
|
|
00:54 | or a basis on understanding how everything your body works even though it didn't |
|
|
00:59 | like it. Right. So that's of the idea. And so our |
|
|
01:03 | point is going to be here, I said, the fluid compartment, |
|
|
01:06 | kind of gave you the sense, . We kind of talked about uh |
|
|
01:10 | Thursday, your body has these different in it, right, that it |
|
|
01:16 | and creates unique compartments for unique things happen. And we can think of |
|
|
01:21 | terms of the organs, we can of them in terms of tissues are |
|
|
01:25 | that they do different things. But you grind down deep and start |
|
|
01:29 | you'll see that the body is actually shell for the most part that separates |
|
|
01:36 | up into two compartments. All there's places where we put fluids or |
|
|
01:41 | reactions can take place either inside cells outside cells. And we're talking about |
|
|
01:47 | the cell, we refer to this as the intercellular compartment and it contains |
|
|
01:52 | it intracellular fluid. And then on outside of cells, we have this |
|
|
01:56 | and this is where fluid is found that's the extracellular fluid see really, |
|
|
02:00 | complicated. I think I told you simple people, we need things for |
|
|
02:04 | they do or for what they look . So either inside water or outside |
|
|
02:08 | , right? That's basically what it . If you look at this, |
|
|
02:11 | the device point between these two things going to be the plasma membrane, |
|
|
02:15 | thing that makes up the outside of cell. So we think about |
|
|
02:20 | The first question we always have to ourselves usually is are we inside or |
|
|
02:23 | we outside of cells? Ok. , that doesn't seem like why do |
|
|
02:27 | have to care about this well being that each cell does its own |
|
|
02:34 | it does its own unique uh kind reactions and stuff. And so by |
|
|
02:38 | this compartment, it is creating the through which all those chemical reactions on |
|
|
02:46 | outside of the cell. That's also that there are specific types of reactions |
|
|
02:50 | can only take place there because of unique characteristics of the fluids. |
|
|
02:55 | they're similar, but they're different. , if you look at the extracellular |
|
|
03:00 | , the extracellular fluid is actually two as well. All right, we |
|
|
03:06 | when you look at the picture up . So you can see here is |
|
|
03:09 | cells, everything else is going to outside cells. And then here if |
|
|
03:12 | look at the outside of the we got stuff that's flowing in our |
|
|
03:16 | , for example. And then we fluid a compartment that sits outside of |
|
|
03:20 | . See your cells are not jammed right next to each other. So |
|
|
03:23 | there's no space in between them. actually is a little bit of |
|
|
03:27 | right? Very microscopic, all And this space between cells is called |
|
|
03:33 | in between space. The fancy word it is interstitial. So interstitial space |
|
|
03:39 | an interstitial fluid and then the fluid around in the blood in circulation is |
|
|
03:46 | to as the plasma. And what these two things apart is not uh |
|
|
03:52 | materials that make it up because they're the same thing. It's only one |
|
|
03:56 | and it's the presence of what are plasma proteins. Now that is a |
|
|
04:01 | . But I'm talking in terms of the other stuff of all the |
|
|
04:04 | if you look at the interstitial fluid you look at uh plasma, they're |
|
|
04:08 | the same, they're made up of the same stuff. The difference is |
|
|
04:11 | that plasma protein. Now, plasma are just proteins that are found in |
|
|
04:15 | plasma. They're all sorts of different . And the reason we care about |
|
|
04:22 | is because where those plasma proteins are where they're not directs the direction, |
|
|
04:29 | a terrible way to say it provides the the mechanics that tells water where |
|
|
04:35 | go. All right. So you've of this term before osmosis, |
|
|
04:41 | You probably memorized it at least if not twice or three or four |
|
|
04:45 | over the course of your life And most people kind of nod their |
|
|
04:48 | and go. Yeah. Yeah, got it. And really what osmosis |
|
|
04:50 | is diffusion of water down its rate it again a little bit later |
|
|
04:56 | more detail, right? But the is is that in order for chemical |
|
|
05:02 | to take place, they have to a watery environment with the right makeup |
|
|
05:06 | of materials in that water and water where there is material or where there's |
|
|
05:11 | water is. The other way you look at it. And so water |
|
|
05:14 | between the different compartments. It moves the intracellular fluid and the extracellular |
|
|
05:19 | I should do that backwards, intracellular and extracellular fluid, it moves between |
|
|
05:23 | interstitial fluid and the plasma. And thing that drives that movement is the |
|
|
05:28 | of the material that's found in So plasma proteins in the plasma pulls |
|
|
05:33 | towards the plasma and away from the fluid. And so water can be |
|
|
05:39 | out through forces but can actually be back in and water moves in and |
|
|
05:44 | of cells. So when you're dehydrated has your body and so that water |
|
|
05:49 | from places. So the first place going to come is from the |
|
|
05:52 | right? And so if there's less in the plasma, where is that |
|
|
05:56 | going to have to be replaced from interstitial fluid. And if you have |
|
|
05:59 | water in the interstitial fluid and in plasma collectively, that means you have |
|
|
06:03 | water now in the ECF than you in the intracellular fluid. So water |
|
|
06:07 | pulled from your cells and now you an imbalance and now you can't do |
|
|
06:13 | chemical reactions that your body is designed do. And so this movement of |
|
|
06:19 | is very, very important because it the proper working of the cells and |
|
|
06:26 | the function that they're designed for. this stuff is highly, highly regulated |
|
|
06:31 | it's regulated through multiple multiple systems. multiple structures and these are all chemical |
|
|
06:38 | and physical relationships that we're not going dive into. But generally speaking, |
|
|
06:42 | can think that the kidney plays an role in determining water and solute what |
|
|
06:48 | balances should be and regulated. There's four or five hormones that we're gonna |
|
|
06:54 | at over the course of A So A MP two primarily is where |
|
|
06:57 | see this, dealing with the question how do we control this? And |
|
|
07:02 | what we're really looking at is pressures are the hydrostatic pressures. That's the |
|
|
07:07 | pressures and then the colloid pressures which the pressures uh provided by the presence |
|
|
07:12 | the materials in the water. All , colloid is just the stuff in |
|
|
07:16 | water. So all of these things governing whether or not your cells are |
|
|
07:21 | proper balance and proper function and it boils down to are the compartments set |
|
|
07:27 | in such a way for them to that. Now, just to give |
|
|
07:30 | a sense, we're gonna come back this again. So I want you |
|
|
07:34 | think about neurons and muscles for a . One thing you know about neurons |
|
|
07:39 | no things about uh muscles is that electrically controlled. Do you guys know |
|
|
07:43 | if you didn't know that? You that now? All right. So |
|
|
07:46 | you guys know that everyone out I know that now, right. |
|
|
07:50 | . So what that means is that are ions moving back and forth between |
|
|
07:55 | compartments. There's an imbalance and that is reflected in the materials found in |
|
|
08:02 | intracellular fluid and the extracellular fluid. , you are not electrically charged. |
|
|
08:08 | you agree with me on that? other words, if I touch |
|
|
08:10 | would I become electrocuted? No? . We are electrically neutral creatures, |
|
|
08:17 | ? Otherwise we would electrocute people. right. But if you look inside |
|
|
08:22 | cell, so like the intracellular for example, you don't have to |
|
|
08:26 | this today, but eventually you will you might as well start is that |
|
|
08:29 | has more potassium than the extracellular The intracellular fluid has more proteins that |
|
|
08:38 | negatively charged in the outside environment. right. And so what this does |
|
|
08:43 | that means if I have more of pro or more potassium, potassium wants |
|
|
08:47 | move out of cells, that would a current, right? I have |
|
|
08:50 | anionic cellular proteins, they can't So they create the inside of the |
|
|
08:53 | creates becomes negatively charged. And so draws positive charges into the cell. |
|
|
08:59 | so now what you have is you current and it's this current that our |
|
|
09:02 | and our muscles use to do the that they do the extracellular fluid. |
|
|
09:08 | the other hand, has more All right. So you can see |
|
|
09:12 | these two are the big boys sodium potassium are the ones that we care |
|
|
09:16 | . So we have more potassium on inside of cells, we have more |
|
|
09:19 | on the outside of the cells and going to move down their gradients. |
|
|
09:24 | right. And I've already mentioned the proteins being in the plasma, there |
|
|
09:31 | almost essentially no proteins in any And like I said, the reason |
|
|
09:38 | bring this up now is because they're play an important role in understanding at |
|
|
09:43 | two of the major systems that we're be looking at in this the nervous |
|
|
09:48 | and the musculature. So the other , if you just want to know |
|
|
09:53 | they are. So that is one you probably should start thinking about when |
|
|
09:56 | see that. What does it It's bicarbonate. All right, you're |
|
|
10:00 | , well, i it's weird, basically charge materials. It becomes |
|
|
10:05 | really valuable in digestion, the cardiovascular , the kidneys, all sorts of |
|
|
10:09 | , uh calcium and chlorine, but the big ones, potassium sodium. |
|
|
10:17 | right. So the key takeaway from this is that the body is divided |
|
|
10:22 | two parts, those two parts have characteristics and then one of those parts |
|
|
10:27 | divided into again, that would be in uh the extracellular fluid. All |
|
|
10:33 | . Now, having said all that we talked on Thursday, we introduced |
|
|
10:39 | idea that there's this hierarchy of hierarchy of organization in the body. |
|
|
10:44 | at the very bottom, we're gonna with the question of the biomolecules. |
|
|
10:48 | biomolecules? Because the biomolecules are, the cells are made of cells are |
|
|
10:55 | lowest form of living thing that we define in biology. All right, |
|
|
11:02 | the characteristic that we define. We the thing called cell theory. This |
|
|
11:08 | basically everything biology is about. There's theory which we'll get to that the |
|
|
11:12 | dogma genetics. And then we have theory, which is what is the |
|
|
11:17 | form of life. And so cell is very basic. Uh there's lots |
|
|
11:21 | , of basis for what we've done . I mean, so like the |
|
|
11:24 | step that were done, they, used to believe back in the 17 |
|
|
11:27 | , that life was created spontaneously. uh if I had a piece of |
|
|
11:32 | and I put it on the table would form from it magically, |
|
|
11:35 | That was like the first experiment that did and they put a piece of |
|
|
11:39 | into a vacuum and then they let's see if life forms and it |
|
|
11:45 | , oh they didn't realize that fly landing on the meat and laying and |
|
|
11:49 | getting life, right? So it realized very quickly. There were experiments |
|
|
11:55 | in animals and experiments done with plants it came to that, oh, |
|
|
11:58 | order for life to exist, it be derived first from life. And |
|
|
12:02 | the first thing that we kind of was the fundamental unit of life or |
|
|
12:07 | from pre-existing cells. So, cells the fundamental unit. They are the |
|
|
12:12 | form. They're the very basic form living and they have to come from |
|
|
12:15 | living before it. Now, if want to ask the question, where |
|
|
12:19 | those cells come from? Where do cells come from? That's not this |
|
|
12:22 | . I encourage you to take other in biology to learn this because it |
|
|
12:27 | very complicated and it deals again with biomolecules and how they arrange themselves. |
|
|
12:33 | right. Now, each of these are able to produce another cell because |
|
|
12:38 | them, they contain hereditary information. have a, a biomolecule called DNA |
|
|
12:45 | that DNA allows them to encode a of all the information that so every |
|
|
12:56 | came from a cell before it that aware of and it can't contains within |
|
|
13:01 | , this biomolecule. Now, with in mind, what are these |
|
|
13:08 | How does a cell do the things it does to keep itself alive and |
|
|
13:13 | itself going? And how does it ? So there are four basic |
|
|
13:18 | All right. The nucleic acids, proteins, the lipids and the |
|
|
13:23 | If you want to make this really for yourself. Think cheeseburger, cheeseburger |
|
|
13:28 | of all those things. Carbohydrates. . Bread. All right. Protein |
|
|
13:34 | . If you're vegetarian, whatever that substitute is. All right. |
|
|
13:41 | Fats. Well, it's in the , right? It's in the |
|
|
13:44 | but it's also in the cheese. Right. And then nucleic acids, |
|
|
13:50 | that was living beforehand. Has nucleic , even Cheetos. Well, where |
|
|
13:56 | Cheetos come from? It comes from . I know horribly dyed orange, |
|
|
14:01 | still comes from a living thing. so these living thing or these things |
|
|
14:09 | all living organisms. All right, have distinct structures between them. So |
|
|
14:14 | one of the things we're gonna have be able to identify is what makes |
|
|
14:17 | one unique. Remember what I If it's named differently, it has |
|
|
14:20 | characteristics. So that should be your clue is how do I uh distinguish |
|
|
14:25 | thing from that thing? All they have distinct properties because of those |
|
|
14:30 | structures. In other words, they unique things. That's why they |
|
|
14:34 | The other thing is that of these of them have uh uh basic building |
|
|
14:41 | that allow you to make larger, complex flex things. All right. |
|
|
14:45 | a protein, for example, is we refer to as a polymer. |
|
|
14:49 | a polymer of a smaller sub unit a monomer that monomer. In the |
|
|
14:53 | of a protein is an amino we'll get to that in a |
|
|
14:56 | All right. So three of this is just like Sesame Street. |
|
|
15:01 | remember that Sesame Street. Did you watch Sesame Street? One of these |
|
|
15:05 | is not like the others. The one that's not like the others |
|
|
15:09 | the lipid, the lipid is the one that is in a polymer. |
|
|
15:12 | , nucleic acids are polymers, Are polymers. Carbohydrates can be, |
|
|
15:17 | , lipids are not polymers. That's weird one. All right. So |
|
|
15:23 | we look at them, what we're do, we're gonna say here's what |
|
|
15:25 | biomolecule is. This is the monitor the monitor from which it's derived and |
|
|
15:30 | the monitors are are the unique subunits have similar characteristics. You just use |
|
|
15:35 | and combine them again. If you to have a visual representation. Think |
|
|
15:39 | a Lego kit. How many different of Legos are there a lot? |
|
|
15:43 | like. That's good. Too many that I step on them. |
|
|
15:46 | But can you make pretty much anything a Lego kit? Yeah. All |
|
|
15:50 | . So it's kind of the same . You can't use Lincoln logs and |
|
|
15:52 | Lego kit is wrong wrong, Lincoln logs, build their own |
|
|
15:57 | All right. Now, if you this class at another institution, you'll |
|
|
16:03 | to spend a whole day talking about reactions. Yeah, I'm not |
|
|
16:10 | This is the only thing you need know. All right, the gist |
|
|
16:15 | this slide right here is look, are two basic types of reactions. |
|
|
16:19 | we're dealing with polymers and monomers, what we're gonna do is we're gonna |
|
|
16:24 | build something or we're gonna break something . Remember we talked about metabolism, |
|
|
16:28 | said there's an abol and metabolism. either going to build something or gonna |
|
|
16:31 | it down. If I'm going to something. What I have to do |
|
|
16:36 | I'm gonna take two different monomers. right, between them, they each |
|
|
16:42 | a unique uh chain. They have , or, or a reactive |
|
|
16:47 | They will each have a hydroxyl which is an alcohol group. That's |
|
|
16:51 | ohuc up there. And on the side of the molecule, they'll have |
|
|
16:54 | proton. And what you're gonna do you're gonna cleave off a proton, |
|
|
16:58 | gonna cleave off that alcohol group and gonna bring them together and form a |
|
|
17:02 | molecule of water. And in doing , what you've done is you've pulled |
|
|
17:06 | out of the reaction and now those molecules can come together with a little |
|
|
17:11 | of energy. All right. So I put in energy and break those |
|
|
17:16 | things off and form water, I convinced water, I had, I |
|
|
17:21 | made water. So that's the first of reaction. It's also referred to |
|
|
17:26 | a dehydration because why water has left reaction very basic. So this is |
|
|
17:33 | I build polymers. If I take monomer to a monomer, pull out |
|
|
17:37 | and add energy, I've now created polymer. All right. That would |
|
|
17:43 | in terms of the type of All right, if I take a |
|
|
17:49 | break that bond now, two unstable . So I have to stabilize |
|
|
17:53 | So what I'm gonna do is I'm take water, I'm gonna break water |
|
|
17:56 | half, I'm gonna jam on the group which is the alcohol I'm gonna |
|
|
18:00 | on the hydrogen on the other And now I've stabilized the two monomers |
|
|
18:04 | added water in when I do That's a hydrolysis reaction. See, |
|
|
18:11 | broke water, water is so, , is a molecule I break it |
|
|
18:16 | half, take the two halfs and it on there. And that's what |
|
|
18:19 | done there. So these two types reactions are what you're gonna see when |
|
|
18:25 | are making polymers and breaking polymers. when I make polymers, I'm taking |
|
|
18:32 | and putting them together or I have monomer chain and a monomer and I'm |
|
|
18:35 | it together. So, are you me? Is that easy chemistry? |
|
|
18:42 | hope much easier than let's learn all different names and crazy stuff. Different |
|
|
18:47 | of reactions. Uh Yeah, see you've done it, you know what |
|
|
18:51 | talking about? It's just like it's fun. So our first molecule we |
|
|
18:55 | to talk about is nucleic acids. right, nucleic acids are the largest |
|
|
19:00 | molecule in your body. All They're just long chains of these nucleotide |
|
|
19:07 | chained together to create this very long . And so this is something that |
|
|
19:12 | seen probably a dozen times a good alpha helix. If you have a |
|
|
19:16 | uh uh car with a Texas license it, go look at it in |
|
|
19:20 | right light. You'll see there are alpha helix on there, right? |
|
|
19:25 | don't know why they put DNA on license plates, but it's there. |
|
|
19:30 | right. Now, nucleic acids. isn't the only form. This is |
|
|
19:35 | . There are two major classes. have DNA, which is deoxyribonucleic |
|
|
19:40 | And then we have RN A which ribonucleic acid. I'll show you the |
|
|
19:44 | here in just a moment. what we have here is we have |
|
|
19:47 | series of monomers that are chained together the way along the length of one |
|
|
19:53 | those uh arms. All right. the other one, that's another |
|
|
19:58 | And when we're talking about these they're covalent linked to each other. |
|
|
20:03 | word means that they're bound together and takes a lot of energy to break |
|
|
20:07 | apart. Now, the monomer that interested in here is called a |
|
|
20:14 | A nucleotide is very basic. It off with a ribo sugar. All |
|
|
20:19 | . So this is our ribo It's a five carbon sugar in that |
|
|
20:23 | carbon sugar. The thing that distinguishes A from DNA is this uh uh |
|
|
20:30 | sitting off over here to the It's the number off the number two |
|
|
20:33 | . That's not important for you But basically, if it's RN A |
|
|
20:35 | has two alcohols, if it's that has one alcohol. All |
|
|
20:40 | So that's the distinguished, so it's OXY, it took away one of |
|
|
20:43 | oxygens. That's where it comes All right. But then what we're |
|
|
20:47 | have is we're having off to the , we have a nitrogenous base. |
|
|
20:51 | are five different types of nitrogenous And then on the other side, |
|
|
20:56 | have a phosphate. All right. these three components make up a |
|
|
21:02 | Now, of these uh nitrogenous there's five, there's two different classes |
|
|
21:07 | these, we have what are called permits and we have what are called |
|
|
21:12 | Pines. Now, DNA has in pure, uh, sorry, in |
|
|
21:17 | Prides has thymine and cytosine as that space. So you can have a |
|
|
21:23 | , thy thymine and cyto, that's DNA. A doesn't use thymine. |
|
|
21:30 | , it uses cell. There's notice they're fairly similar to each other. |
|
|
21:34 | right. But that was one of other characteristics that distinguishes RN A from |
|
|
21:42 | . Now, how do I remember one is? Which? All |
|
|
21:45 | My wife's an Aggie told you I think. All right, Aggies |
|
|
21:52 | pure. They'll tell you that over over again. Right? You're, |
|
|
21:55 | 3% or blah, blah, blah, Aggie, Aggie, |
|
|
21:57 | Aggie, everything's Aggie, everything's That's their entire life. It's |
|
|
22:03 | All right. All right. If are pure Pines A G, do |
|
|
22:11 | have a better way, use the way? But that's how I |
|
|
22:15 | All right. So if A G the purines, that means C and |
|
|
22:19 | are permits. That's how I And if I'm in a substitute, |
|
|
22:24 | U for the T. Oh there's a UT in there. Oh |
|
|
22:28 | , I didn't even think about You do not have this slide and |
|
|
22:34 | apologize. But I was going over questions I have on the exam and |
|
|
22:38 | have an A TP question. So good if I ask you and explain |
|
|
22:44 | to you. Yes, ma'am. not the only difference, but that's |
|
|
22:50 | we're going with right now in terms the monomer, the nucleotide. |
|
|
22:56 | Well, no. Also remember you're instead of thine. So for |
|
|
23:02 | we have only one of the alcohols our, we have two alcohols and |
|
|
23:06 | for the nitrogenous base, if we don't use thymine, we use |
|
|
23:11 | in place. OK. So you think of that DNA has a GCTRN |
|
|
23:17 | has a GCU. OK? T, all right. So A |
|
|
23:27 | doesn't really fall in the class of . And that's why I think I |
|
|
23:30 | out the slide years and years But we got to know this. |
|
|
23:34 | right, you're gonna hear uses uses a TP over and over and |
|
|
23:39 | again in biology. So what is TP? It's a nucleotide. Does |
|
|
23:42 | look like what we just showed you the other slide? So I need |
|
|
23:45 | go back. So you can see, look, same thing. |
|
|
23:49 | difference is over here. See, an ad there's your nitrogen base, |
|
|
23:54 | your ribose, there is your first . So that would be a |
|
|
23:58 | And what we've done is in this , a TP we've added phosphates to |
|
|
24:04 | end, specifically two extra phosphates. , if you look at those |
|
|
24:08 | what you'll see is that this has negative charge that has a negative charge |
|
|
24:11 | that has a negative charge. What you know about the same charges? |
|
|
24:15 | , they repel one another, So they don't want to be with |
|
|
24:18 | other, they don't want to be to each other. They want to |
|
|
24:20 | far away from each other. So are bonds shown by the little red |
|
|
24:25 | lines here that are not particularly they're very unstable bonds. All you |
|
|
24:30 | to do is just give it a bit of nudge and it breaks and |
|
|
24:33 | releases energy. So this molecule is valuable molecule because it creates unstable bonds |
|
|
24:40 | can store energy. And so a is a way to move energy around |
|
|
24:46 | cell and to use energy by the . All right. And so a |
|
|
24:51 | , you can think of as a for the cell. That's why I |
|
|
24:56 | up the battery of the cell. right. So it's an unstable molecule |
|
|
25:00 | of those side chains over there, it's just a nucleotide. So the |
|
|
25:05 | thing that you see here is what the backbone of this? Now, |
|
|
25:14 | don't only play this and actually a has multiple roles beyond this, |
|
|
25:18 | If you're a biology major, you're go, oh my goodness. It |
|
|
25:21 | so simple, right? A TP . Got that. But it plays |
|
|
25:26 | roles. One of the things we're learn a little bit later in Neuroscience |
|
|
25:29 | the Neuroscience section is a TP serves a neurotransmitter, which is weird because |
|
|
25:37 | like, but energy, right? we don't need to know that |
|
|
25:40 | All you need to know is energy of those bonds. All right. |
|
|
25:45 | what we do with these nucleotides in of the biomolecules is we can make |
|
|
25:49 | of two molecules, we can make long strand DNA and we can make |
|
|
25:52 | long strand RN A. So what DNA DNA is a polymer with two |
|
|
25:57 | ? So basically, it's a long strand that's attracted to another polymer strand |
|
|
26:03 | comes together and forms this double polymer , right? It has a unique |
|
|
26:10 | . You can see over here, little three prime and the five prime |
|
|
26:13 | up here, there's a three So these two polymers are going in |
|
|
26:18 | directions. So here's my hand, my hand, they're going like |
|
|
26:22 | All right, that's their arrangement. it's what is referred to as anti |
|
|
26:30 | , they're parallel with each other, they're going in opposite directions. The |
|
|
26:35 | is formed because of an attraction between nucleotides. So you can see the |
|
|
26:40 | dotted lines here. All right, little dotted lines represent hydrogen bonding, |
|
|
26:46 | is a uh an attractive bonding. right, it's not held together by |
|
|
26:52 | , it's held together by attraction. what we have here is that specific |
|
|
26:59 | are attracted to other specific nucleotides, ? So Adine is attracted to thymine |
|
|
27:07 | uracil. And so you get a between those two cytosine is attracted to |
|
|
27:14 | or vice versa. So you get between those two. And so you |
|
|
27:19 | a lot of hydrogen bonds. And you do is you get this molecule |
|
|
27:23 | held together by a lot of attraction of that unique pairing. All |
|
|
27:28 | we refer to this as complementary based and because of the structure and how |
|
|
27:34 | stuff is, so you see how have that phosphate in between. What |
|
|
27:37 | forming here is between each of those along the ribose portion is you're creating |
|
|
27:44 | bond here and here so that you're that long shape, those are phospho |
|
|
27:51 | . And because of the way that molecules are shaped, it causes that |
|
|
27:55 | to start twisting itself. And this where you get that alpha helical |
|
|
28:04 | what we call the double helix. that's DNA in a nutshell. All |
|
|
28:11 | . Now, it is a unique because it serves as a hereditary |
|
|
28:16 | We're going to get to that in moment but how it's unique from Rnarn |
|
|
28:19 | doesn't form double helices. They stay the most part as a single |
|
|
28:26 | they still have a five prime and three prime. I mean, if |
|
|
28:28 | wanna five prime and 35 come it comes from the naming of the |
|
|
28:33 | . So carbon 12345. So the prime is from the five carbon, |
|
|
28:38 | three prime is from the three That's where it comes from. So |
|
|
28:43 | get single strands, there are no , right? You get the cells |
|
|
28:50 | . All right. Now, there still be an attraction within the actual |
|
|
28:56 | itself. And that's what this is to show you. This is an |
|
|
29:00 | of an RN A molecule called TRN . And so you can see here |
|
|
29:04 | one strand and you can see how kind of goes around, but there |
|
|
29:07 | an attractiveness between say the uh uh the cytosine. And so what they |
|
|
29:13 | is they find each other and go I'm gonna hang out with you and |
|
|
29:16 | they bend and twist the molecule to a shape. So this would be |
|
|
29:19 | two to each structure. You can it here, you can see how |
|
|
29:22 | helix cause it all twist out. if you do it in a space |
|
|
29:25 | model, then you can actually see it looks like. It has a |
|
|
29:27 | dimensional shape. Now RN A as general rule plays a role in building |
|
|
29:36 | , nucleic acids. On the other , or sorry DNA, on the |
|
|
29:40 | hand, serves as a molecule that information in its sequence. So between |
|
|
29:45 | two, what we have here is that looks like this inside the |
|
|
29:52 | The information that the cell needs in to be functional is encoded in the |
|
|
29:56 | of the nucleic acid. It doesn't what organism you are. If you're |
|
|
30:01 | inside a mosquito, a piece of , a fish, a human nucleic |
|
|
30:05 | or nucleic acids or nucleic acids. right, fish do not have different |
|
|
30:11 | acid. They have the same All right, they have the same |
|
|
30:16 | . What makes the things unique between of the organisms is the sequences of |
|
|
30:22 | DNA. All right. The sequences the uh nu- nucleotides. We said |
|
|
30:29 | this information is hereditable or heritable. right. What that means is when |
|
|
30:34 | cell is ready to divide and become new, it has machinery within the |
|
|
30:40 | that says, hey, um time take that DNA and let's make a |
|
|
30:44 | of it. So all your DNA copied and that's millions upon millions upon |
|
|
30:50 | of bases are copied. So that that cell divides each daughter cell gets |
|
|
30:54 | own, copy, it clones All right. And then lastly, |
|
|
31:02 | sequence encodes for the molecules that your needs the proteins, it needs to |
|
|
31:09 | the functions that it does. Those , these are your genes when you |
|
|
31:12 | the word gene, that's what you're about. And so that gene is |
|
|
31:17 | to be transcribed so that you can RN A and that RN A then |
|
|
31:21 | used that sequence of the RN A used as the blueprint to build the |
|
|
31:26 | . The way I kind of think this is the easy way to think |
|
|
31:29 | this is, you know, like construction site over here, there was |
|
|
31:33 | architect that came up with a plan designed the entire building and created blueprints |
|
|
31:37 | that building. Right? Would you agree with that? That's probably pretty |
|
|
31:39 | to understand, right. Do you they took the original blue blueprints out |
|
|
31:43 | to do the work? What do think? No, no, they |
|
|
31:46 | copies and they give out copies to different contractors? Ok. Your |
|
|
31:52 | Here's your instruction set for the That's what RN A is. It's |
|
|
31:57 | specific instruction set to make one not the whole plan. All |
|
|
32:05 | the other truth is is that not cell is gonna use every gene that's |
|
|
32:09 | your, in your um genome, cells use different genes. So cell |
|
|
32:18 | , all things come from living all cells come from other cells. |
|
|
32:22 | has heretical information. So that's like of the foundational principles of biology. |
|
|
32:27 | another foundational principle of biology. It's the central dogma genetics. And I'm |
|
|
32:33 | because, um, about 40 years , someone discovered retroviruses and basically blew |
|
|
32:41 | out of the water. So there an exception to this rule here, |
|
|
32:45 | this is, you can just take to the bank for the most part |
|
|
32:48 | here. It is basically DNA contains edible information and all the genes that |
|
|
32:54 | it uses that DNA uh as a from which we're going to create copies |
|
|
33:00 | specific instruction sets. That would be rnarn A is then used in the |
|
|
33:06 | step to make proteins. So if is the instruction, that instruction allows |
|
|
33:10 | to encode the proteins that do the your cell does. All right. |
|
|
33:15 | DNA begets rnarn, a begets the proteins does the things your cell |
|
|
33:20 | . That would be the central So what's a protein? Well, |
|
|
33:28 | far are we good with nucleic Got polymer. Got the monomers. |
|
|
33:33 | are the monomers called nucleotide, OK. All right. So our |
|
|
33:39 | biomolecule is a protein. These are uh images of random proteins I pulled |
|
|
33:44 | the interwebs. OK. Proteins are basic structural material of the body, |
|
|
33:51 | ? They are the things that your use to do, the things that |
|
|
33:54 | do. And here is a big list of some of those things you |
|
|
33:57 | see here are the classes you do need to memorize this list. It |
|
|
34:00 | shows you. All right. What structural? Well, it creates strength |
|
|
34:04 | the cell that strength is then used translated into tissue strength, right? |
|
|
34:08 | Storage, I can store up I can cause the cell to move |
|
|
34:12 | . There's different types of proteins that different things, right? They have |
|
|
34:16 | shapes and they have unique functionality in of what they are. They are |
|
|
34:22 | chains of amino acids. So, the monomer is or sorry, if |
|
|
34:25 | polymer is the protein, the monomer the amino acid, this is an |
|
|
34:30 | acid in a very, very basic . All right. So if the |
|
|
34:36 | of the, of the nucleotide, that's the monomer had three parts. |
|
|
34:41 | right, the amino acid has three . The name also tells you what |
|
|
34:46 | of the parts are parts are, an amino acid. So the first |
|
|
34:50 | is an amine group, the other is a carboxyl group. That's the |
|
|
34:56 | part. And the thing that makes amino acid unique and you can see |
|
|
35:01 | off, we're off of central carbon is that variable group, right? |
|
|
35:06 | r means it can be one of different things. Now, in the |
|
|
35:10 | of amino acids, there are 20 groups. In the case case of |
|
|
35:14 | , there are five variable groups, ? So we have a lot here |
|
|
35:19 | . You don't have to memorize what variable groups are. All right, |
|
|
35:24 | you take biochemistry, you not only to memorize them, you get to |
|
|
35:26 | how they're made. Yay. All . So it's this right here that |
|
|
35:34 | each amino acid unique from the other . This is the big chart to |
|
|
35:38 | you all the different types of amino that you don't need to memorize. |
|
|
35:41 | just gonna point out something to you . All right. So they've, |
|
|
35:44 | classified here. So here you can they're nonpolar versus polar. Polar means |
|
|
35:48 | attracted to water. Nonpolar means they're by water. And so you can |
|
|
35:53 | if I'm a protein that's in a environment. My protein has polar amino |
|
|
35:58 | that are going to point outward and will have non polar ones that are |
|
|
36:01 | inward. If I have something that's , it can be positively or negatively |
|
|
36:07 | charges are repelled by water or are attracted to water. So they'll |
|
|
36:13 | outward and then you have weird things these aromatic groups, these rings, |
|
|
36:18 | example, and that's gonna cause twists binds. And so part of the |
|
|
36:22 | that your proteins have unique shapes is of the characteristics of these unique amino |
|
|
36:29 | here. Now notice they're unique. mean, glycine and alanine are |
|
|
36:33 | You can see there's your R group now, they may have a similar |
|
|
36:38 | , but they are different. And they have different types of characteristics along |
|
|
36:43 | them. All right. So I'm kind of pointing that out. They're |
|
|
36:46 | just groups. So, amino acids proteins are polymers. How do we |
|
|
36:56 | them? We do the condensation All right. It's the same sort |
|
|
37:01 | thing we saw before. All right , the type of chemical reaction we're |
|
|
37:05 | to create is called a peptide And what I'm gonna do is I'm |
|
|
37:09 | cleave off a hydroxyl and I'm gonna off a hydrogen. I get the |
|
|
37:13 | from the carboxy end. All Now, this is a terrible picture |
|
|
37:17 | it should be, oh, the charge here is basically saying that hydrogen |
|
|
37:21 | between the two things. But basically gonna take that, oh, from |
|
|
37:24 | , I'm gonna take a hydrogen from immune group and I pull them out |
|
|
37:28 | I make water. So there's my . And then what I've done is |
|
|
37:31 | now attached those two amino acids And if you look at this, |
|
|
37:36 | I've created a peptide on one I still have an amine on the |
|
|
37:40 | side, I still have a So what I'm doing is as I'm |
|
|
37:44 | this thing longer and longer and I still keep the amine on one |
|
|
37:48 | , I still keep the carboxy on other. So we refer to the |
|
|
37:51 | side as the N terminus because it a nitro nitrogen. We call this |
|
|
37:55 | C terminus because it has a So you'll often see that being |
|
|
38:00 | But if you get a really long . So if this is a |
|
|
38:04 | you can see at the front I always have an on the back |
|
|
38:07 | , I always have a carboxy. then what's in between is the unique |
|
|
38:13 | of that amino acid or sorry, of that uh protein. So you |
|
|
38:17 | see all the RS are just representing variable groups, little purples represent the |
|
|
38:23 | bonds that have been created in this type of reaction. And each |
|
|
38:27 | what am I doing? The OK. So what if I want |
|
|
38:31 | break this thing? What am I pull out water or I'm gonna |
|
|
38:37 | sorry, I'm gonna add in water I'm going to pull out energy. |
|
|
38:40 | it's just the reverse reaction. What do I have up here? |
|
|
38:46 | so if it has this particular sequence is always at the front end, |
|
|
38:51 | is always at the back end, you're always gonna be reading in this |
|
|
38:54 | direction. Each of those amino There's 20 of them are just like |
|
|
38:59 | in an alphabet. How many letters in our alphabet? 26. Thank |
|
|
39:03 | . I always get confused sometimes. think it's 24. All right. |
|
|
39:08 | . How many words can you create 26 letters? Yeah, an infinite |
|
|
39:14 | . So, how many proteins do think could exist theoretically an infinite |
|
|
39:19 | All right. Now, is there infinite number? No, but we |
|
|
39:23 | , I mean, just think if gave you three letters like cat, |
|
|
39:28 | many words do you think you could it, cat? You go |
|
|
39:32 | keeping it simple. I can spell act. If you want to be |
|
|
39:37 | tack. If you played enough you'll find words that. But did |
|
|
39:41 | know you can spell tat tat? . So you can see if I |
|
|
39:47 | use them in many times, I create longer and bigger words, |
|
|
39:51 | And that's the same thing with, proteins. I just have the amino |
|
|
39:56 | , right? So you get different proteins because you have different combinations, |
|
|
40:00 | 20 amino acids, different lengths, can have small proteins, you can |
|
|
40:04 | big proteins, lipids I said are weird ones. They are not |
|
|
40:16 | they all exist as is they are own monomer. All right. So |
|
|
40:21 | is a very, very diverse group fatty water insoluble, meaning they do |
|
|
40:26 | like water. All right, All right. They have uh carbon |
|
|
40:32 | , oxygen, carbohydrates are the It's just that in car uh |
|
|
40:36 | we're gonna have a very fixed ratio here you don't have a fixed |
|
|
40:40 | All right. Um Multiple functions. this is what you're most familiar |
|
|
40:45 | Oh, this is how I store nutrients or energy in the form of |
|
|
40:49 | . Uh You, if you haven't this, you will very shortly, |
|
|
40:52 | can make cell membranes out of They also serve as signaling molecules or |
|
|
40:56 | . And there's four basic classes. that's what we're looking at here. |
|
|
40:59 | is the aso glycerides, we have phospho lipids, steroids and the |
|
|
41:06 | I'm gonna go into a little bit detail for each of these just so |
|
|
41:08 | can see them, distinguish them. right. So in this picture, |
|
|
41:12 | looking at a triglyceride. All which is an ao glyceride. This |
|
|
41:16 | what, when you think of this is probably what you think |
|
|
41:19 | All right, butter oil are basically same thing. The differences in these |
|
|
41:26 | substances has to do with what, these long chains um exist. |
|
|
41:32 | a Trias glyceride is a glycerol It's a three carbon molecule. All |
|
|
41:37 | . So you can see here those three red dots represent the glycerol |
|
|
41:44 | . We'll see a better picture of in, in, in terms of |
|
|
41:48 | C three carbons in the next All right. And then off of |
|
|
41:52 | , each of those carbons, we're have a, a dier bond, |
|
|
41:56 | is basically a long fatty acid So the bond that holds that fatty |
|
|
42:00 | to the glycerol is the dier All right. So here's fatty fatty |
|
|
42:06 | , fatty acid. If those chains what are called saturated, meaning there |
|
|
42:11 | no double bonds, it's all single , then that chain is gonna be |
|
|
42:16 | and straight. You get a whole of straight things close together, they'll |
|
|
42:21 | up nice and tight and they become solid. So butter is solid because |
|
|
42:27 | filled with a bunch of fatty acids have saturated bonds. If you have |
|
|
42:32 | unsaturated bond, that means you created double bond, you're lacking the same |
|
|
42:37 | of hydrogens. All right. So bonds create kinks in the chain. |
|
|
42:43 | , if someone were to stand next me and my leg is sticking out |
|
|
42:46 | this. Can they get up nice close to me? No, there's |
|
|
42:50 | something preventing that from happening. And you can see here here, I |
|
|
42:54 | my kinks. So those molecules can't up close together. So the fats |
|
|
42:59 | more liquid in nature and that's what oil is. They have unsaturated |
|
|
43:05 | All right, in the fatty acid . Now, this type of fat |
|
|
43:11 | primarily used to store up energy in long fatty acid chains. All |
|
|
43:17 | there's a lot of energy between a and a carbon in it in that |
|
|
43:22 | of bond. All right, it's covalent bond. So it's a really |
|
|
43:26 | way to store fuel and that's what body does. That's how, why |
|
|
43:29 | have fats in our body or this of fat. So, how do |
|
|
43:34 | get to that fat? Well, I can do is I can break |
|
|
43:38 | bonds. All right. That would lipogenesis, right? So, if |
|
|
43:42 | making fats or sorry, wrong word it up. If I'm making |
|
|
43:48 | what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna my Glycerol. Here's my fatty acid |
|
|
43:51 | . Each of these chains has a of energy in them. If I |
|
|
43:54 | to make a fat, I'm going go through the process of lipogenesis. |
|
|
43:57 | is that dehydration reaction. Basically you can see the hydrogen, there's |
|
|
44:00 | hydroxyl, there's my water. And this is how I make fats. |
|
|
44:04 | right, when I want to break fat, I just do lipolysis. |
|
|
44:08 | break fats. And I'm just doing , I'm doing that hydrolysis reaction. |
|
|
44:13 | , we're not gonna talk about how do the change that's called beta |
|
|
44:16 | That's a lecture for another day. Digestion may be in a MP two |
|
|
44:21 | likely in biochemistry. But what you're is you are removing uh the carbons |
|
|
44:25 | by one. All right. So do we use this for, as |
|
|
44:31 | , long term storage also use it structural support, um cushioning, |
|
|
44:39 | Notice where fat deposits also insulation, have a small layer of subcutaneous fat |
|
|
44:46 | uh helps hold in heat in the . A phospho lipid is a lot |
|
|
44:55 | a triglyceride. Do you see how looks like a triglyceride? Right. |
|
|
45:00 | see we have our glycerol, 123 , we have one chain, two |
|
|
45:06 | so far, very similar. But we've done is we've gotten rid of |
|
|
45:09 | of the long chains. So missing long chain. And instead, what |
|
|
45:13 | we have a different unique head? right. This is what is called |
|
|
45:18 | phospho head. All right. It's polar head. Really? What it |
|
|
45:22 | . It's a phospho chain. And can see on the end that little |
|
|
45:25 | it means there's something up there that's that among each of the different phosphor |
|
|
45:29 | and there are about 5 to 10 them. I can't remember the exact |
|
|
45:33 | . All right. Now, why we care about this room? |
|
|
45:37 | fossil lipids are what make up the membrane of all your cells see their |
|
|
45:43 | is you have the fatty acid fatty acid chains are fat. So |
|
|
45:48 | hate water or water excludes them with . That does all the hating, |
|
|
45:52 | . So water said I don't want around. So phospho these fatty acid |
|
|
45:55 | go well, I'm gonna go hang with other fatty acids. And so |
|
|
45:57 | they do is they arrange themselves in a way that those fatty acid chains |
|
|
46:02 | , are pointed away from water. , this head up here because it |
|
|
46:08 | a charge and a little negative charge there is attracted to water and so |
|
|
46:13 | arranges itself and points to water. so if you get a lot of |
|
|
46:16 | , what they do is they arrange in these bi layers. And so |
|
|
46:20 | can see here there's the fatty acid , there's the polar portions and |
|
|
46:29 | these these um lipid bi layers are we make the walls or the plasma |
|
|
46:36 | of the cells. Now, these , what we refer to as being |
|
|
46:40 | paic M is a prefix we use make mean that it has dual |
|
|
46:49 | is both attracted to water and is by water. An amphibian, what |
|
|
46:54 | an amphibian? It, it spends of its time on water or in |
|
|
47:00 | part of its time on land, ? A frog is an amphibian, |
|
|
47:04 | ? It uses the same prefix A right. So just when you see |
|
|
47:08 | go there's dual nature to this And so this molecule is attracted to |
|
|
47:14 | and repelled by water. And that's it creates this unique arrangement when you |
|
|
47:19 | a whole bunch of them. So because without it, you wouldn't have |
|
|
47:35 | . Yeah. Say again the empty . What now? Yeah. |
|
|
47:41 | So the so ant Paic is just term. So Amy means dual nature |
|
|
47:47 | , you know, refers to its , right? So it is attracted |
|
|
47:53 | water and it's unattractive to water, ? So it's kind of like your |
|
|
47:59 | . It's you can think of it's love hate relationship I love but I |
|
|
48:02 | so because of that, it twists to arrange itself so that a portion |
|
|
48:08 | towards water and a point is uh portion is away from water. And |
|
|
48:13 | you can see here in this I have a whole bunch of these |
|
|
48:17 | , see how they're all arranged. red portions are the heads, they're |
|
|
48:20 | towards water out here, they're pointing water, the tails are pointing towards |
|
|
48:27 | other. They wanna hang out with other because not water. All |
|
|
48:33 | that's its amp Paic nature because of way that it's arranged. That's how |
|
|
48:39 | interacts with its environment is how you kind of think about it. I |
|
|
48:46 | this picture and everyone I show it freaks out about it. Ok. |
|
|
48:50 | news. Don't memorize anything on the . I mean, you will on |
|
|
48:53 | side. Ok. When we're talking steroids, steroids is another type of |
|
|
48:59 | . It's an important lipid, your body, your whole life right now |
|
|
49:03 | governed by steroids. Right? I'm even talking about the fun ones. |
|
|
49:11 | . Well, I like to show to you guys is to kind of |
|
|
49:15 | you up one, right? So want you to see how steroids are |
|
|
49:18 | . Steroids start from a fat called . You guys heard that fat, |
|
|
49:23 | ? You've been told cholesterol is bad you. Yeah, it's a |
|
|
49:27 | right? Your body desperately needs cholesterols multiple reasons. The least of which |
|
|
49:32 | this. All right. Part of reason you have stability in your um |
|
|
49:38 | membranes is because of cholesterol. So is important, right? But let |
|
|
49:42 | show you something this yellow area, are called the progestins. This right |
|
|
49:48 | , this pink triangle. Those are estrogens. You've heard of estrogens, |
|
|
49:53 | ? These right here are the the androgens. Another name from would |
|
|
49:57 | the testosterones would be an easy way call that. All right. And |
|
|
50:01 | over here, this is the purple . These are the mineral corticoid, |
|
|
50:04 | little green areas, the glucocorticoids. right. And so what these represent |
|
|
50:09 | the major players, the major steroids your body and it shows you the |
|
|
50:15 | in between are the enzymes that allow to go from here and to wherever |
|
|
50:20 | need to go. All right. the steroids are made uniquely by one |
|
|
50:27 | the right enzyme in the right place the chain of command. All |
|
|
50:32 | or missing an enzyme. So for , if you're making progesterone women, |
|
|
50:37 | all, you all make progesterone and stop at progesterone. All right. |
|
|
50:41 | that's because you are missing enzymes that you to progress to the other |
|
|
50:46 | but you also make estrogen. So you're making estrogen, you are basically |
|
|
50:51 | all the way through the process. other words, all the enzymes are |
|
|
50:55 | to allow that to happen. All now for the fun one. |
|
|
51:01 | a couple of years ago there was woman in the UK who is mad |
|
|
51:04 | men but it seems to be a thing. And she said, you |
|
|
51:08 | , it's unfair that women have to through pregnancy, men need to experience |
|
|
51:12 | . So what we should do is should inject men with progesterone. So |
|
|
51:17 | understand what it's like to feel right? Ok. Now, here's |
|
|
51:22 | stupidity of her thinking this woman never any biology. You all have taken |
|
|
51:28 | now. All right. So where I point, where did I say |
|
|
51:32 | testosterones were located right down here? do you get to the testosterones through |
|
|
51:38 | progesterones? If you give them in whole bunch of progesterone. What's gonna |
|
|
51:44 | ? They're just gonna make a whole of testosterone. Do you see the |
|
|
51:48 | in her thinking? Yeah. So part of the importance of knowing |
|
|
51:52 | biology and stuff like that is, know what happens when you start shoving |
|
|
51:55 | in your body? All right, is an example of that. So |
|
|
52:00 | her hope to bring justice to men hell yeah, look what, what |
|
|
52:07 | happen if we pumped you full of plays get estrogens. All right. |
|
|
52:20 | fact, that's how you make You make this stuff right here, |
|
|
52:26 | in a ion and immediately gets shoved to another cell and says, all |
|
|
52:30 | , make estrogen out of it. right, what we do is we |
|
|
52:34 | this and we go down and men that right now. I'm just pointing |
|
|
52:39 | out that steroids beget other steroidss. are all very, very valuable as |
|
|
52:43 | molecules. The mineral corticoid regulate water balance. The glucocorticoids are used to |
|
|
52:49 | stress, estrogens, progestins. Uh gotta get a new one. progestins |
|
|
52:55 | testosterone. These are what you're most with as the sex steroids. They're |
|
|
52:59 | ones that play an important role in well, puberty and how you produce |
|
|
53:05 | gas. I'm just trying to find , I got them. I know |
|
|
53:09 | have them. I put them in earlier. Yes. Take a couple |
|
|
53:15 | seconds. Here. There we All right. Anyway, so this |
|
|
53:29 | how you, how you govern a of the uh things in your |
|
|
53:33 | another uh signaling molecule um are the these you're probably not familiar with, |
|
|
53:38 | this is another type of lipid. the reason I'm showing you all these |
|
|
53:41 | is to show you that fats are just about energy, they're, they |
|
|
53:46 | for a whole bunch of different So the econo are derived from a |
|
|
53:50 | acid chain. It's called Arado When you hear a Raonic acid, |
|
|
53:54 | do you think of spiders? I know where the name comes from, |
|
|
53:57 | I think of spiders too. All . So I hear Raonic but it's |
|
|
54:01 | but it's, you know, But what you do is you get |
|
|
54:05 | whole bunch of different types of So tell me if any of these |
|
|
54:08 | a bell prostaglandins. Yes. How about prostacyclin? No. How |
|
|
54:15 | thromboxane? No. How about Leuco ? No, you're sitting, I |
|
|
54:21 | know what the hell you're talking Pros prostaglandin. You're like, |
|
|
54:24 | I mean, I've heard of that but all the ones I don't |
|
|
54:26 | but these are all molecules that are , very valuable for different things in |
|
|
54:30 | body. For labor contraction. That be prostaglandin inflammation. Uh that would |
|
|
54:35 | the thrombo and the leuco trine blood thromboxane. These are molecules that are |
|
|
54:41 | valuable to keep you alive. All . And they're signaling molecules and they |
|
|
54:47 | from a fatty acid chain. All . So it's just another form of |
|
|
54:52 | molecule. And then we have the . You're familiar with wax. Ever |
|
|
54:57 | your finger in your ear and just around for a little while. See |
|
|
55:01 | people are, I'm not gonna admit it. Yes, you have. |
|
|
55:04 | know you have. Maybe not a . Maybe you went and got that |
|
|
55:07 | tip and you rolled it around for minutes because it felt good. |
|
|
55:11 | All right. All right. What you pulling out? You're pulling out |
|
|
55:14 | . All right. It's a fatty chain. It's a long chain of |
|
|
55:18 | . You can see what happens. do that ester bond again. It's |
|
|
55:21 | be water coming out. So it's dehydration reaction. What do you |
|
|
55:24 | You get this long fatty acid That looks really, really interesting. |
|
|
55:29 | what a wax is. All It's protective. So, lipids have |
|
|
55:35 | structures. They have different things and do unique things, but there are |
|
|
55:39 | monomers. OK. The last of biomolecules are the carbohydrates. This is |
|
|
55:51 | we live for. Right? Sugar by passed out M and |
|
|
55:57 | Right. Right. Now everyone would happy, wouldn't they? Yeah. |
|
|
56:03 | . All right. Carbohydrates are your sugars and their polymers. All |
|
|
56:09 | So the monosaccharide is the monomer. right. These are the simple |
|
|
56:13 | You'll hear those oftentimes um all sugars have a basic ratio. So, |
|
|
56:20 | are have a fixed ratio of one two hydrogens, one oxygen in some |
|
|
56:26 | . All right. So typically the are anywhere between three and seven |
|
|
56:30 | So you just put a three there'd be three carbons, six |
|
|
56:33 | three oxygens. If it was it would be seven carbons, 14 |
|
|
56:37 | , seven oxygens. It's a nice ratio. So when you see that |
|
|
56:41 | , you're like, that's a That's really easy and straightforward. All |
|
|
56:44 | . So the monosaccharide, that's a sugar. We usually typically think of |
|
|
56:49 | hex, the hexose. Those are six carbon sugar. So you've heard |
|
|
56:53 | glucose? Yes. Right. It's galactose maybe. And fructose you've heard |
|
|
56:59 | , right? So those three are the like the ones that you hear |
|
|
57:03 | the time. But like we saw little bit earlier, we saw |
|
|
57:06 | That's a five carbon sugar, But when we're talking about the |
|
|
57:10 | we're gonna take those simple sugars and going to start creating chains out of |
|
|
57:15 | . If we put two of them to make, say for example, |
|
|
57:19 | or maltose or lactose, right? what we've done is we've created a |
|
|
57:26 | . All right. But if we lots of sugars of the same type |
|
|
57:29 | kind of create this chain, we have a polysaccharide. All right. |
|
|
57:34 | notice the monomer is what keeps it and basic, right? And |
|
|
57:37 | how do we make them? It's simple, same type of reaction. |
|
|
57:40 | the dehydration reaction or condensation reaction. then when we put it, uh |
|
|
57:44 | we tear them apart, what are doing? We're doing a hydrolysis |
|
|
57:48 | So it's the same sort of So here you can see glucose, |
|
|
57:52 | glycogen which is a lot of glucose long chains. So the process of |
|
|
57:56 | this and breaking this has a special . But the idea is, it's |
|
|
58:00 | is a dehydration, one is a reaction. Now, why do we |
|
|
58:08 | about carbohydrates? What do they Well, this is our primary food |
|
|
58:13 | , right? So monosaccharide and disaccharide , are the things that we use |
|
|
58:18 | break down. So you guys learned in freshman bio or sorry, sophomore |
|
|
58:23 | high school biology. You learned glucose , right? Do you remember that |
|
|
58:28 | nightmare? The 10 stages of the 10 steps of the crab |
|
|
58:34 | Do you guys someone nod their please? Ok. I just wanna |
|
|
58:37 | sure. So all that is basically slow release of energy and taking that |
|
|
58:44 | and moving it to a TP. that yourself then has a place to |
|
|
58:47 | . Oh Let me just release A TP. Let me release energy |
|
|
58:50 | the A TP. So this is process. We're not gonna learn that |
|
|
58:57 | . OK. If you took this the community college, it'd make you |
|
|
59:00 | the whole cycle all over again. know it's terrible. When are you |
|
|
59:04 | gonna use it again. Never. right. But it kind of helps |
|
|
59:12 | to choose what you're gonna eat. right, we can store up our |
|
|
59:17 | as polymers, right? So, is an example of this. Your |
|
|
59:23 | , we think of glycogen for the part of being in the liver. |
|
|
59:26 | I need sugar, that's what I . But your muscles have tons of |
|
|
59:30 | in them. And the reason for is your muscles are the ones that |
|
|
59:33 | burning energy. So it doesn't want wait for another system to come along |
|
|
59:37 | say um OK, I'll go ahead send you the energy now that you're |
|
|
59:40 | chased by the bear. It, like I want the energy now. |
|
|
59:43 | I want the energy stored up in . So, glycogen is an example |
|
|
59:47 | that. All right. Um The thing we've mentioned, carbohydrates serve as |
|
|
59:52 | backbone of genetic material. So we at the ribose in terms of the |
|
|
59:55 | sugars in the nucleotides. That would an example of sugar in another |
|
|
60:00 | And then we also have uh glycolipid glycoprotein. And so we're going to |
|
|
60:07 | a little bit later when we talk uh cells that on the surface of |
|
|
60:10 | plasma membrane, we have sugars hanging all the surfaces of our cells. |
|
|
60:16 | , ladies, you already know this sugar and spice and everything nice is |
|
|
60:19 | little girls are made of. That funny. That was a dad joke |
|
|
60:26 | . I got this. I got smile. All right, we're |
|
|
60:30 | what are we made of snakes and and puppy dog tails? You guys |
|
|
60:36 | have, that's what your great grandparents have been reading to you. All |
|
|
60:41 | . It's old, old, old nursery rhyme stuff. All |
|
|
60:46 | Anyway, on the outside of the , one of the ways that cells |
|
|
60:50 | themselves as being unique and belonging to body is they put sugars on the |
|
|
60:54 | of the cells. And these are glyco lipids and the glycoprotein, which |
|
|
60:59 | not shared. We call that process . We'll come to it again when |
|
|
61:03 | look at the cells, but I want you to be surprised carbohydrate to |
|
|
61:07 | for many different things, but it's just storage of energy. How we |
|
|
61:15 | on time here? Oh, we're pretty good. All right. So |
|
|
61:22 | there any questions about these four types biomolecules? Do you see that they're |
|
|
61:27 | from each other in terms of Let me just ask that. Do |
|
|
61:29 | guys recognize, I could recognize the in terms of structure? Can you |
|
|
61:34 | in a very general sense? Not specifics in terms of, in terms |
|
|
61:38 | functionality. Like what do nucleic acids ? Right? It's credible information. |
|
|
61:45 | do proteins do stuff? What do do? Fuel? Right. What |
|
|
61:52 | of stuff? OK. So that's of the the the characteristics I want |
|
|
61:56 | to be able to do. All . Yes, ma'am. They all |
|
|
62:02 | from cholesterol. The end. I care that, you know, the |
|
|
62:07 | cord cord, gluco cord cords. don't care if, you know, |
|
|
62:11 | , don't look at the structures if interested. Kind of look at it |
|
|
62:15 | a little bit and go, how these things different from each other? |
|
|
62:17 | I'm not gonna ask you a question it. It's just you're interested because |
|
|
62:21 | cool thing about looking at them, all notice that they're all four rings |
|
|
62:25 | and what makes each of them unique think how different estrogen and testosterone |
|
|
62:29 | But it's all just because of a side chain change. Yeah, |
|
|
62:33 | it's so it's stuff like that. interesting, right? So in that |
|
|
62:39 | , the last little bit here, I mentioned is I want to talk |
|
|
62:42 | enzymes just kind of go through them quickly. All right. So an |
|
|
62:48 | is a catalyst and a catalyst, job is to reduce the amount of |
|
|
62:52 | energy in order for a reaction to forward. And one of the things |
|
|
62:56 | when we think about um chemical reactions the energy that's required for, we |
|
|
63:01 | kind of lost in the weeds. now I wanna just make this easy |
|
|
63:04 | you. All right. So in particular reaction, we're not, we're |
|
|
63:07 | learning about Delta Gs and all the fun stuff that you get to do |
|
|
63:11 | like a biology class. But the of this is, is look in |
|
|
63:14 | particular chemical reaction, all I need do is I'm going to put energy |
|
|
63:19 | the system that's going to cause And then once instability occurs, then |
|
|
63:23 | reaction moves forward and energy is released I get my products. So I |
|
|
63:27 | off with my reactant and I get products and sometimes that's just not easy |
|
|
63:31 | understand. So I want to think like this. All right, I |
|
|
63:35 | an investment I want to make. I make an investment, I'm gonna |
|
|
63:39 | I put money in, I'm gonna $100 out plus whatever I put in |
|
|
63:43 | the first place. All right. would be an example of what an |
|
|
63:46 | does. The problem is is that I want to make this investment, |
|
|
63:49 | say it requires $10 to invest. don't have 10 bucks to invest, |
|
|
63:54 | ? So there's a barrier for me get the, the result that I |
|
|
63:59 | . Ok. But what an enzyme is it lowers barrier for the |
|
|
64:06 | You still have to do something to the reaction to move forward, |
|
|
64:09 | You still have to invest into the , but the barrier lowers. So |
|
|
64:14 | , let's say now that there's some of coupon that I have. All |
|
|
64:19 | , and the coupon lowers the amount have to invest to $5. But |
|
|
64:24 | now I can invest in and in end, what am I gonna get |
|
|
64:27 | of the reaction? The same thing would, if I didn't have the |
|
|
64:30 | , I get my investment back plus $100 that come out of reaction. |
|
|
64:36 | that's kind of what a catalyst It just lowers the barrier and that's |
|
|
64:39 | this picture is trying to show It's saying here is where the normal |
|
|
64:43 | of energy I have to put into system. But with the catalyst in |
|
|
64:46 | , it just lowers it in this case by half. All right. |
|
|
64:51 | in the end, I still get same products. The catalyst itself is |
|
|
64:55 | affected, it does not create part the product. It does not come |
|
|
65:00 | of the, I mean, it change in the reaction itself. It |
|
|
65:05 | as is all right. Now, the most part in the body |
|
|
65:11 | these catalysts are proteins. So this an example of one of the, |
|
|
65:15 | of the things that proteins do is it serves as a catalyst. All |
|
|
65:19 | , serves as an enzyme. there are other types of enzyme. |
|
|
65:23 | bodies, one are, are RN enzymes and they have a special |
|
|
65:28 | they call them ribozyme. But for most part, when you hear enzyme |
|
|
65:31 | think protein OK? Is that good ? All right. So the other |
|
|
65:37 | putting up there just so you won't shocked in the future. So this |
|
|
65:41 | an example of an enzyme here. what happens is, is an enzyme |
|
|
65:46 | have some sort of active site that the product that it's going to |
|
|
65:51 | that it's going to promote towards um I said product, some reactant that's |
|
|
65:57 | to be created. Now, when talking about enzymatic reactions, we don't |
|
|
66:01 | them reactants, we call them It's just a special word that they |
|
|
66:06 | specifically for enzymatic reactions. And so substrate recognizes the active site will bind |
|
|
66:14 | the active site cause a change in shape of the enzyme which then causes |
|
|
66:21 | in the shape of the substrate. other words, it stresses bonds or |
|
|
66:25 | . And so it lowers the activation so the reaction can move forward. |
|
|
66:29 | right. So that's kind of what's on here. It's causing a three |
|
|
66:33 | change. And this is true for sort of protein. When there are |
|
|
66:37 | in the shape of structure, then gonna get changes in the, |
|
|
66:40 | in the reaction, right. Reactions gonna happen as a result of shape |
|
|
66:45 | . Now, an enzyme is always to be named for the type of |
|
|
66:49 | that is catalyzed. So if you like something like a hydroxylase, it's |
|
|
66:53 | , oh, what I'm doing is adding water during hydrolysis. So those |
|
|
66:58 | reactions looking at probably has some sort hydroxylase involved so that I can add |
|
|
67:04 | to the reaction as I'm breaking a . All right. But there's |
|
|
67:10 | generally speaking, if a word has se at the end, it is |
|
|
67:14 | enzyme that makes life kind of So, if I see a word |
|
|
67:17 | has a, I'm like, so if I have something like, |
|
|
67:20 | example, a slip base, what you think it's breaking fossil lipid? |
|
|
67:28 | simple people. We name things for they do or for what they look |
|
|
67:31 | . All right. However, sometimes discovered a molecule, gave it a |
|
|
67:36 | before they discovered what it did. those stupid molecules now have names that |
|
|
67:42 | follow our naming convention. So sometimes will be an enzyme that doesn't have |
|
|
67:46 | at the end and that's very But the good news is uh going |
|
|
67:51 | the list of every enzyme to memorize and just giving you a heads |
|
|
67:55 | OK. So ace at the end it's an enzyme. Now, this |
|
|
68:03 | how these types of reactions work. right. So here you can |
|
|
68:08 | I have an enzyme in a All right, the substrate binds to |
|
|
68:12 | enzyme and what we created called the substrate complex. Now, in |
|
|
68:17 | what we're doing is we're now manipulating substrate. So the substrate isn't the |
|
|
68:23 | anymore. It's not the product It's in some sort of strange relationship |
|
|
68:29 | the enzyme. I can go backwards come back to the enzyme plus the |
|
|
68:35 | or I can proceed and create the . So I'm kind of wavering between |
|
|
68:41 | two states. But if I move the product state and I'm still bad |
|
|
68:46 | the enzyme. So I'm now part the enzyme product complex. I'm no |
|
|
68:51 | attracted to the enzyme. And so will happen is I will separate myself |
|
|
68:55 | the enzyme. And so that's when get the enzyme plus the product. |
|
|
68:59 | so this would be how one of reactions work and every one of those |
|
|
69:03 | is rev reversible. All right, often. Are you going to get |
|
|
69:07 | products and go backwards? But you , all right, if you have |
|
|
69:11 | much product, then you can force reverse reaction as an example. But |
|
|
69:17 | speaking, this is that works enzyme substrate, enzyme, substrate complex, |
|
|
69:22 | product complex no longer attracted products leave then I can repeat the process, |
|
|
69:26 | a new substrate and just keep going that direction. Now, whenever you |
|
|
69:35 | an enzyme, you also have to yourself with the reaction rate. So |
|
|
69:40 | hear this all the time in what's the rate of reaction? What's |
|
|
69:43 | rate of reaction? Right? The of reaction are affected by a couple |
|
|
69:48 | items. How fast does the reaction ? It's affected by concentration. If |
|
|
69:54 | have more and more substrate, then going to get to a point where |
|
|
69:58 | not enough enzyme available to catalyze the you guys played um uh musical chairs |
|
|
70:08 | , right? There's not enough butts the chair or there are not enough |
|
|
70:11 | for the butts. Right. So a point where the music stops and |
|
|
70:14 | someone that's gonna be left out. ? That's a saturation point, right |
|
|
70:19 | I've peaked and these are the number butts I'm allowed to touch chair. |
|
|
70:25 | . That's the same thing here. I have the number of doors for |
|
|
70:28 | room are 24 and six, there's , there's a finite number of people |
|
|
70:34 | can leave the room at the same , we've reached a saturation point. |
|
|
70:37 | right, if I increase the number doors, then I've lowered the |
|
|
70:43 | more people can leave. Right. I've changed the reaction rate. If |
|
|
70:46 | reduce the number of people going through , I can change the reaction |
|
|
70:51 | right. So, modifying, adjusting ratio of substrate to enzyme changes the |
|
|
70:56 | rate. Temperature has a massive effect well. Every enzyme works at a |
|
|
71:02 | temperature or has an ideal temperature at it works. And every enzyme has |
|
|
71:06 | ideal P at which it works. right, if you fall outside of |
|
|
71:11 | range, it affects the enzyme. the enzyme either breaks down or causes |
|
|
71:16 | , it slows down traction or just , refuses to work. I'm gonna |
|
|
71:20 | you the easy example of this is digestive system. All right, your |
|
|
71:25 | digestive system is minal from the mouth stomach to the small intestine. In |
|
|
71:29 | , very simple terms. All I digest sugars and I digest um |
|
|
71:36 | in my mouth, which is crazy you think about it. But there's |
|
|
71:39 | the saliva, there are enzymes that catalyze the reactions. My stomach doesn't |
|
|
71:45 | sugars. It kind of does fast not real well. What it does |
|
|
71:49 | well are proteins. The ph in mouth is close to seven. The |
|
|
71:53 | in my stomach is close to The enzymes that are coming from my |
|
|
71:59 | are basically halted in my stomach because the change in ph. And then |
|
|
72:03 | enzymes in my stomach are turned on of the presence of that ph. |
|
|
72:10 | , that food then moves on to small intestine. In the small |
|
|
72:13 | I digest fats, I digest I digest nucleic acids, I digest |
|
|
72:19 | . But the ph in my small is again closer to seven. So |
|
|
72:25 | enzymes from my stomach turn off the in the small intestine turn on because |
|
|
72:29 | the differences in the ph. So different reactions are taking place as a |
|
|
72:34 | of that. Now, temperature is same thing. Think about an |
|
|
72:38 | right? When you take an egg and put it in a frying |
|
|
72:43 | it changes its nature, right? goes from clear to solid, |
|
|
72:48 | So temperature changes um how a molecule and that's what you see here. |
|
|
72:56 | one. Think about a flu when have the flu, what do you |
|
|
72:59 | fever? You get the fever. . Here's a song. I get |
|
|
73:02 | fever right. So my temperature goes because my enzymes in my body have |
|
|
73:08 | broader range of reactivity or activity than enzymes that say a bacteria or a |
|
|
73:14 | would have. So when my temperature up, my body is using as |
|
|
73:17 | defense mechanism to shut down microorganism activity still maintaining my own. But when |
|
|
73:25 | hit that 104 and 100 and five , my body doesn't like that does |
|
|
73:30 | . That's bad. You've heard 100 four bad. That's because your enzymes |
|
|
73:34 | your molecules start breaking down at those . So that's in that finite |
|
|
73:40 | I think I have one more slide . Is that right? Yeah. |
|
|
73:44 | this is denaturation. This is what when you fall outside of those |
|
|
73:51 | Denaturation simply means it's the process by a functional protein loses its shape. |
|
|
73:57 | if you look at this bottom picture , this is just trying to show |
|
|
73:59 | an example of a Pacman shaped And you can see the blue, |
|
|
74:03 | thing is the substrate that shape. going to learn in a lecture a |
|
|
74:08 | bit later is dependent upon the shape the or the shape form by the |
|
|
74:13 | in their order and their sequence. right. But if I put in |
|
|
74:17 | , what that's gonna happen is gonna those bonds, it's gonna be |
|
|
74:20 | the energy that's holding it in the shape is gonna cause it to reorganize |
|
|
74:25 | . It's still the same sequence, it no longer maintains a shape. |
|
|
74:29 | so what happens is, is that molecule becomes nonfunctional. Now, when |
|
|
74:35 | cook food, this is what we're . If I put, take a |
|
|
74:38 | and I put it in a griddle over, um, um, |
|
|
74:41 | on a grill, what I'm Temperature? Right. All right. |
|
|
74:48 | . Can you cook with acids? here? Like, what does the |
|
|
74:55 | check this lime juice? Low high acids, you don't need |
|
|
75:06 | It's doing the exact same thing. denaturing the proteins and so that they |
|
|
75:12 | denatured. Now again, this is because your molecules have to have a |
|
|
75:16 | . If you lose the shape, lose their functionality. If they lose |
|
|
75:19 | functionality, the cells can't work. so one of the things that we're |
|
|
75:24 | is we're maintaining PHS and temperatures in compartments that we described so that the |
|
|
75:30 | can do the things that they It's all about the cell. All |
|
|
75:38 | . You're welcome. Thank |
