SOME ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
1. Carbon can fill its outer energy level by forming 4 single
A carbon atom contains 6
covalent bonds with other atoms protons, 6 neutrons, and 6
2. Carbon is outstanding among all of the elements on electrons, 2 in the first energy
level and 4 in the second
earth because of its ability to form large molecules.
protein structure
calles polymer.
• The most important polymers are DNA ,RNA (composed of nucleotides) and proteins
thymine (T). In RNA, the thymine is replaced by uracil (U). The purines (adenine
and guanine) have a 2-ring structure, and pyramidines (cytosine,thymine and uracil)
• Adenine and thyime have 2 hydrogen bond sites whereas cytosine and guanine have
which introns are removed and exons are joined. This is needed for

paradigm).
Protein Structure
• Protein may roughly be divided into three classes: globular
(enzymes), fibril (collagen, elastin), and membrane proteins.
• Primary structure: the amino acid sequence of the
protein.
The next step is translation. This is where the mRNA moves to the ribosomes and tRNA
brings amino acids in the correct sequence.
Transcription
Transcription is when the code from a
DNA sequence is used to make a
complementary strand of mRNA.

• Transcription is the first step leading to gene expression. The stretch of DNA transcribed into
an RNA molecule is called a transcription unit and encodes at least one gene.
