Biomolecules Assemble: a 3D model for Class 12 Chemistry, covering In solution the C5 –OH of open-chain glucose adds to the C1 aldehyde, closing a six-membered pyranose ring., Ring closure makes C1 a new stereocentre: with its –OH down (Haworth) it is α-D-glucose, up it is β-D-glucose., Two monosaccharides join by a glycosidic bond, losing water: two α-glucose units linked C1–O–C4 make maltose., Amino acids join when the –COOH of one and the –NH₂ of the next lose water, forming a peptide bond –CO–NH–., The sequence of amino acids is the primary structure; the chain coils into an α-helix held by hydrogen bonds..

Topics

  • In solution the C5 –OH of open-chain glucose adds to the C1 aldehyde, closing a six-membered pyranose ring.
  • Ring closure makes C1 a new stereocentre: with its –OH down (Haworth) it is α-D-glucose, up it is β-D-glucose.
  • Two monosaccharides join by a glycosidic bond, losing water: two α-glucose units linked C1–O–C4 make maltose.
  • Amino acids join when the –COOH of one and the –NH₂ of the next lose water, forming a peptide bond –CO–NH–.
  • The sequence of amino acids is the primary structure; the chain coils into an α-helix held by hydrogen bonds.
  • Nucleotides (base + deoxyribose + phosphate) pair across DNA strands: A with T by two H-bonds, G with C by three.
  • The two DNA strands run in opposite directions (antiparallel) and each base pair is one purine with one pyrimidine.
  • Hydrolysis reverses condensation: water splits glycosidic and peptide bonds, as enzymes do during digestion.
