Title: Biochemistry Definition: The study of the fundamental chemical basis of life Types of Biomolecules: Inorganic, water, salts, organic (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids) Biochemical Substances (Human Body): Inorganic, water, salts, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids Proteins: Polymers of amino acids, most abundant organic biomolecule Amino Acids: Each amino acid contains: Amino group, carboxylic acid group, alpha carbon, side chain Side chain has a functional group Classified into 4 groups based on side chain At physiological pH (7.4): Amino acids are charged Protein Structure: Almost all the chemical reactions in the human body are catalyzed by proteins Protein chains fold into complex 3D structures Without correct structure, proteins don't function
