Presentation Transcript
Higher Biology Unit 1: 1.3 Protein Structure
Learning Intentions To be able to describe the different structures of proteins To be able to explain the functions of different proteins
Success Criteria I can describe the structures of different protein types I can explain how proteins maintain their structure
Proteins All proteins contain the chemical elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen Proteins are long chains of amino acids held together by peptide bonds in a specific order Hydrogen bonds form between some amino acids in a protein causing it to become coiled or folded
Protein Structure Proteins fall into 2 distinct groups: 1. Fibrous proteins 2. Globular Proteins
Protein Function Proteins have a variety of functions depending on their shape They can act as enzymes, hormones, antibodies and structural proteins
Success Criteria I can describe the structures of different protein types I can explain how proteins maintain their structure
