Structure of Proteins
Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids
There are 20 common and several rare amino acids found in proteins
More amino acids are found in cells and tissues but are not in proteins
Amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds

46
Anabolic Reactions
This is where energy is used to make large molecules (e.g. C6H12O6) from smaller ones (e.g. CO2 and H2O) using enzymes
e.g. Photosynthesis – glucose molecules are formed from carbon dioxide and water using enzymes and the energy from the sun.
This is anabolism. Energy is absorbed.

48
Catabolic Reactions
This is where energy is released when large molecules (e.g. C6H12O6) are broken down to form smaller ones (e.g. CO2 and H2O) using enzymes
e.g. Respiration – glucose molecules are broken down by enzymes to form carbon dioxide and water and energy is released.
This is catabolism. Energy is released.

Is catabolism the opposite of anabolism? – NO
In the examples just given the chemical processes (pathways*) involved in each of them are different, therefore catabolism is not the opposite of anabolism.
* e.g. if you travel from A to B – you followed a certain pathway. On the return journey you may come home through C – you followed a different pathway.
