Protein Structures
Secondary protein structures occur when protein chains coil or foldWhen protein chains called
polypeptides join together, the tertiary structure forms because R groups interact with each otherIn the watery environment of a cell, proteins become globular in their quaternary structure

Proteins as EnzymesMany proteins act as biological
catalysts or enzymes
Thousands of different enzymes exist in the body

Enzymes
Their folded conformation creates an area known as the active site.
Enzymes are globular proteins.
The nature and arrangement of amino acids in the active site make it specific for only one type of substrate.

Denaturating ProteinsChanges in temperature & pH can denature (unfold) a protein so it
no longer worksCooking denatures protein in eggs
Milk protein separates into curds & whey when it denatures
