BIOCHEMISTRY C785 Note-Taking Guide/BIOCHEMISTRY C785 Note-Taking Guide LATEST UPDATE 2022.

BIOCHEMISTRY C785 Note-Taking Guide.**Read This First** - This Note-Taking Guide is meant to be used as you go through each of the Units in Biochemistry. It is only effective when used with course materials, including all of the Essential Reading material in Campbell Biology (�), the course videos ( �) and podcasts (�), the Learning Check questions, and the Unit Quizzes. We highly recommend that you print out this guide and use it to make your own notes on the course by writing the vocabulary definitions and answering the questions in your own words. We also recommend that you review your notes every day for all Units to keep the course material fresh in your mind even as you learn new material in the course. If there are definitions or questions you are unable to answer on your own, please click here to discover multiple options for working with a Course Instructor. We would love to help you succeed in Biochemistry! {{click here if you’d like a PDF version}} ***Unit 2: Amino Acids, Peptide Bonds, and Protein Structure*** Page Section Vocabulary Key Questions - You should be able to answer these upon completion of the Unit/Section. Please add your own notes as necessary. 12 Amino Acids, Peptide Bonds, and Protein Structure Proteins are all constructed from the same set of 20 amino acids, linked in unbranched polymers. The bond between amino acids is called a peptide bond, so a polymer of amino acids is called a polypeptide. A protein is a biologically functional molecule made up of one or more polypeptides, each folded and coiled into a specific three-dimensional structure. 13 2.1 Amino Acids: The Building Blocks of Proteins 14 � � Subtopic: Chemical Elements, Atoms, and Bonds—Optional Review Electrons Energy Covalent bonds Biochemistry Note-Taking Guide Biochemistry Note-Taking Guide page 2 Ionic bonds Hydrogen bond
