Lipids & Cell Membranes
• Cell membranes are made of lipids called phospholipids
• Phospholipids have a head that is polar & attract water (hydrophilic)
• Phospholipids also have 2 tails that are nonpolar and do not attract water (hydrophobic)

Proteins are polymers made of monomers called amino acids
Proteins are used to build cells, act as hormones & enzymes, and do much of the work in a cell

Proteins as Enzymes
Many proteins act as biological catalysts or enzymes
Thousands of different enzymes exist in the body
Enzymes control the rate of chemical reactions by weakening bonds, thus lowering the amount of activation energy needed for the reaction

33
Enzymes
Their folded conformation creates an area known as the active site.
Enzymes are globular proteins.
The nature and arrangement of amino acids in the active site make it specific for only one type of substrate.
