Biospecies Information
By: Bryan Sadowski
![Page 2: Biospecies Information By: Bryan Sadowski. Proteins ● Made up of amino acid chains – Typically 200-300, but can be as high as 27,000 (titin) ● Functions.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082818/56649ef45503460f94c06b9b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Proteins
● Made up of amino acid chains– Typically 200-300, but can be as high as 27,000 (titin)
● Functions proteins are responsible for:– Structures of cells – Transport of materials in
body fluids– Receptors for hormones

Amino Acids
● The monomers making up protein polymers● Made of alpha C, attached to:
– Amino group– Carboxyl group to donate H– One of 20 “R” groups
● Nine essential amino acids– Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine,
Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Valine

Enzymes
● Catalysts for body funtions● Most are proteins
– some use RNA as catalysts (ribozymes)● Bond temporarily to reactants and lower
activation energy for reaction● Example of a body catalyst
– Carbonic anhydrase in red blood cells● CO
2 + H
2O <-> H
2CO
3, allows transport of carbon dioxide from tissue to lungs

Cells
● Structural units that make up plants and animals● Made up of 90% cytoplasm
– Free amino acids, proteins, glucose, etc...● Other 10% consist of:
– 59% H, 24% O, 11% C, 4% N, 2% other● Some of the organelles in the cell:
– Nucleus (DNA), endoplasmic reticulum (protein synthesis), mitochondria (food to energy)

Nucleic Acids
● Building blocks of DNA and RNA● Four types of bases
– Adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), cytosine (C)– Bond A to T and C to G– Form into two complimentary, antiparallel chains
adenine thymine cytosine guanine
