There are four major classes of biological macromolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids); each is an important cell component and performs a wide array of functions. Combined, these molecules make up the majority of a cell’s dry mass (recall that water makes up the majority of its complete mass).

In order for relatively stable organic molecules to react at a reasonable rate, they often must be modified with the use of highly reactive materials or in the presence of a catalyst. In this lesson, you will learn about several general categories of organic reactions.

It has two components: Fo (membrane-embedded) and F1-ATPase (in the matrix), capable of producing over 100 ATP molecules per second. Additionally, it can convert mechanical energy into chemical energy, synthesizing ATP from ADP and Pi at a rate of about 5 ATP molecules per second through rotation, as demonstrated in research using magnetic beads and a rotating magnetic field.
