Protein Functions enzymes structure transport cell to cell signals defense (antibodies) movement storage

Regents Biology collagen
Protein Examples: Keratin
hair and nail
collagen protein in skin
pepsin digestive enzyme
in stomach
insulin hormone that controls blood sugar
levels
pepsin insulin

Protein Monomers = amino acids Structure
central carbon amino group carboxyl group (acid) R group (side chain)
variable group 20 different amino acids
—N—H
HC—OH

H
Oh, I get it!amino = NH2 acid = COOH

Monomer to Polymer = amino acid chains
Proteins are amino acids chained into a polymer (called a polypeptide)
Each amino acid is different Example some “like” water & dissolve in it
Example some “fear” water & separate from it
amino acid amino acid amino acid amino acid amino acid

Regents Biology pepsin
For proteins: SHAPE matters!
collagen
Proteins fold & twist into 3-D shape Different shapes = different jobs
hemoglobingrowth
hormone

Regents Biology
It’s SHAPE that matters! Proteins do their jobs, because of their shape Unfolding a protein destroys its shape
wrong shape = can’t do its job unfolding proteins called “denaturization”
temperature pH (acidity) salt
folded
unfolded“denatured”

Any questions?
Yea…what’s upwith that coat?
Looks like my cousin
