What makes Mc. Donald’s fries taste SOOOO good?
Lipids • • • Lipids are composed of C, H, and O Greater H: O ratio than 2: 1 Primary function is energy storage. Energy is stored in C-H bonds. More efficient in storing energy than carbohydrates • Other functions: waterproofing, membranes in cells, hormones • Macromolecules: Fats, Waxes and Oils.
Structure (building blocks) • Lipids are made of 2 parts • 1 Glycerol - an alcohol Serves as backbone of the molecule • 3 Fatty acids Long hydrocarbon chains connected to a carboxyl group
Dehydration Synthesis of a Lipid
Hydrolysis of a Lipid
Types of fats • Saturated fats have long chains with no double-bonds, solid at room temperature. Ex: beef fat • Unsaturated fats have double bonds, liquid at room temperature. Ex: corn oil (unsaturated trans fats are linked to heart disease) • Polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds – Each time a double bond is encountered, the molecule "Bends" slightly, resulting in a lower density of the lipid. This makes the molecule more likely to remain liquid at room or body temperatures. And thus, less likely to clog cardiac arteries.
Other Lipids • 4 Other types of biologically important Lipids – Phospholipids - Important for membrane structure – Steroids - eg. Cholesterol & testosterone. Provide membrane support / serve as hormones – Terpenes - serve as important components of pigments – Prostaglandins - appear to act like localized hormones to induce cellular/tissue responses
Polar Molecule: the ends of the molecule carry an unequal charge Polar molecules mix well with each other. Remember like mixes well with like molecules. Ex: Water and ethanol, both polar, create a homogeneous solution. Polar molecules are water soluble
Non Polar Molecule A molecule in which the electrons are shared equally between the nuclei. As a result, the distribution of charge is even and the force of attraction between different molecules is small. Nonpolar molecules show little reactivity.
