    CHAPTER 3 Biomolecules 3.1 Carbohydrates In the previous chapter you have learnt about the cell and 3.2 Fatty Acids and its organelles. Each organelle has distinct structure and Lipids therefore performs different function. For example, cell membrane is made up of lipids and proteins. Cell wall is 3.3 Amino Acids made up of carbohydrates. Chromosomes are made up of 3.4 Protein Structure protein and nucleic acid, i.e., DNA and ribosomes are made 3.5 Nucleic Acids up of protein and nucleic acids, i.e., RNA. These ingredients of cellular organelles are also called macromolecules or biomolecules. There are four major types of biomolecules— carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. Apart from being structural entities of the cell, these biomolecules play important functions in cellular processes. In this chapter you will study the structure and functions of these biomolecules. 3.1 CARBOHYDRATES Carbohydrates are one of the most abundant classes of biomolecules in nature and found widely distributed in all life forms. Chemically, they are aldehyde and ketone derivatives of the polyhydric alcohols. Major role of carbohydrates in living organisms is to function as a primary source of energy. These molecules also serve as energy stores, 2021-22 Chapter 3 Carbohydrade Final 30.018.2018.indd 50 11/14/2019 10:11:16 AM 51 BIOMOLECULES metabolic intermediates, and one of the major components of bacterial and plant cell wall.

Abstract: The combination of nanotechnology, biology, and bioengineering greatly improved the developments of nanomaterials with unique functions and properties. Biomolecules as the nanoscale building blocks play very important roles for the final formation of functional nanostructures. Many kinds of novel nanostructures have been created by using the bioinspired self-assembly and subsequent binding with various nanoparticles. In this review, we summarized the studies on the fabrications and sensor applications of biomimetic nanostructures. The strategies for creating different bottom-up nanostructures by using biomolecules like DNA, protein, peptide, and virus, as well as microorganisms like bacteria and plant leaf are introduced.

  • Sugars As the Source of Energized Carbon for Abiogenesis
    Astrobiology Science Conference 2010 (2010) 5095.pdf SUGARS AS THE SOURCE OF ENERGIZED CARBON FOR ABIOGENESIS. A. L. Weber, SETI Institute, NASA Ames Research Center, Mail Stop 239-4, Moffett Field, CA, 94035-1000, [email protected] Abstract: As shown in Figure 1, abiogenesis has sev- eral requirements: (A) a source of organic substrates and chemical energy that drives the synthesis of (B) useful small molecules (ammonia, monomers, metabo- lites, energy molecules), and (C) a second synthetic processs that yields large replicating and catalytic polymers that control (D) the growth and maintenance of a primitive protocell. Furthermore, the required chemical energy must be sustained and effectively coupled to individual reactions to drive biosynthesis at a rate that counters chemical degradation. Energy coupling would have been especially difficult during the origin of life before the development of powerful enzyme catalysts with 3-D active sites. To solve this energy coupling problem we have investigated abio- genesis using sugar substrates whose energized carbon groups drive spontaneous synthetic self-transformation reactions that yield: biometabolites, catalytic mole- cules, energy-rich thioesters, amino acids, plausible alternative nucleobases and cell-like microstructures [1-8]. Recently, we demonstrated that sugars drive the synthesis of ammonia from nitrite [9]. The ability of sugars to drive ammonia synthesis provides a way to generate ammonia at microscopic sites of sugar-based origins processes, thereby eliminating the need for a planet-wide source of photochemically unstable am- monia.

Our synthesis of this hexacyclic aspidosperma alkaloid includes an efficient molybdenum-catalyzed enantioselective ring-closing metathesis reaction for desymmetrization of an advanced intermediate that introduces the C5-quaternary stereocenter. After C21-oxygenation, the pentacyclic core was accessed via an electrophilic C19-amide activation and transannular spirocyclization. A biogenetically inspired dehydrative C6-etherification reaction proved highly effective to secure the F-ring and the fourth contiguous stereocenter of (−)-deoxoapodine with complete stereochemical control.

Lynn Department of Chemistry, University of Rationale: Effective analytical techniques are needed to characterize lignin Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506, USA products for the generation of renewable carbon sources. Application of matrix‐ Correspondence assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) in lignin analysis is limited because of Bert C. Lynn, Department of Chemistry, UK Mass Spectrometry Facility, University of poor ionization efficiency. In this study, we explored the potential of cationization Kentucky, A053 ASTeCC Building, Lexington, along with a 2,5‐dihydroxyacetophenone (DHAP) matrix to characterize model KY 40506‐0286, USA. Email: [email protected] lignin oligomers. Funding information Methods: Synthesized lignin oligomers were analyzed using the developed MALDI National Science Foundation, Grant/Award method. Two matrix systems, DHAP and α‐cyano‐4‐hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA), Number: OIA 1632854 and three cations (lithium, sodium, silver) were evaluated using a Bruker UltraFlextreme time‐of‐flight mass spectrometer. Instrumental parameters, cation concentration, matrix, sample concentrations, and sample spotting protocols were optimized for improved results. Results: The DHAP/Li+ combination was effective for dimer analysis as lithium adducts. Spectra from DHP and ferric chloride oligomers showed improved signal intensities up to decamers (m/z 1823 for the FeCl3 system) and provided insights into differences in the oligomerization mechanism.

Here, we report a method of ribosomal synthesis of azole-containing peptides involving specific ribosomal incorporation of a bromovinylglycine 1234567890():,; derivative into the nascent peptide chain and its chemoselective conversion to a unique azole structure. The chemoselective conversion was achieved by posttranslational dehydro- bromination of the bromovinyl group and isomerization in aqueous media under fairly mild conditions. This method enables us to install exotic azole groups, oxazole and thiazole, at designated positions in the peptide chain with both linear and macrocyclic scaffolds and thereby expand the repertoire of building blocks in the mRNA-templated synthesis of designer peptides. 1 Department of Chemistry, Graduate School of Science, The University of Tokyo, Bunkyo, Tokyo, Japan. 2These authors contributed equally: Haruka Tsutsumi, ✉ Tomohiro Kuroda. email: [email protected]; [email protected] NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | (2021) 12:696 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-20992-0 | www.nature.com/naturecommunications 1 ARTICLE NATURE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-20992-0 zoles, such as oxazoles and thiazoles, are five-membered heterocycles often found in the backbone of peptidic UCAG DNA template U A 1,2 Phe Tyr Cys C natural products .

Abstract Traditionally separate disciplines of a large and broad chemical spectrum, synthetic organic chemistry and biochemistry have found in the last two decades a fertile common ground in the area pertaining to the biosynthesis of natural products. Both disciplines remain indispensable in providing unique solutions on numerous questions populating the field. Our contributions to this interdisciplinary pursuit have been confined to the biosynthesis of polyketides, a therapeutically and structurally diverse class of natural products, where we employed both synthetic chemistry and biochemical techniques to validate complex metabolic processes. One such example pertained to the uncertainty surrounding the regiochemistry of dehydration and cyclization in the biosynthetic pathway of the marine polyketide spiculoic acid A. The molecule's key intramolecular cyclization was proposed to occur through a linear chain containing an abnormally dehydrated polyene system. We synthesized a putative advanced polyketide intermediate and tested its viability to undergo a mild chemical transformation to spiculoic acid A. In addition, we applied a synthetic and biochemical approach to elucidate the biosynthetic details of thioesterase-catalyzed macrocyclizations in polyketide natural products.

Burckle, Vasil H. Vasilev, and Noah Z. Burns* Abstract: The brominated chamigrene sesquiterpenes constitute a representative of the simplest members of the brominated large subclass of bromocyclohexane containing natural products, yet chamigrenes, specifically its isomeric natural product no general enantioselective strategy for the synthesis of these small counterparts, bromochamigrene[3,10,11] (3 and 4, molecules exists. Herein we report a general strategy for accessing Figure 1b). We thus devised a strategy that was capable of this family of secondary metabolites including the enantioselective providing facile access to numerous brominated spirodienes in synthesis of ()-- and ()-ent--bromochamigrene, ()-dactylone, enantioenriched form. and ()-aplydactone. Access to these molecules is enabled by a stereospecific bromopolyene cyclization initiated by the solvolysis of an enantioenriched vicinal bromochloride. Of the roughly 300 natural products that have been isolated and structurally characterized containing a bromocyclohexane motif (1, Figure 1a),[1a-c] more than 50 are represented by the brominated chamigrene sesquiterpenes (2, Figure 1a). Most members of this family differ in their level of saturation, halogenation, and oxygenation (3–8, Figure 1b).
