Proteins• Proteins have many
structures, resulting in a wide range of functions
• Proteins do most of the work in cells and act as enzymes
• Proteins are made of monomers called amino acids

• Enzymes– Are a type of protein that acts as a
catalyst, speeding up chemical reactions

1 Active site is available for a molecule of substrate, the
reactant on which the enzyme acts.
Substrate binds toenzyme.

Polypeptides• Polypeptides
– Are polymers (chains) of amino acids
• A protein– Consists of one or more
polypeptides

• Amino acids– Are organic molecules possessing
both carboxyl and amino groups– Differ in their properties due to
differing side chains, called R groups

Protein Conformation and Function
• A protein’s specific conformation (shape) determines how it functions

Sickle-Cell Disease: A Simple Change in Primary Structure
• Sickle-cell disease– Results from a single amino
acid substitution in the protein hemoglobin

What Determines Protein Conformation?
• Protein conformation Depends on the physical and chemical conditions of the protein’s environment
• Temperature, pH, etc. affect protein structure
![Page 18: Proteins](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062816/56814cfe550346895dba230b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

•Denaturation is when a protein unravels and loses its native conformation(shape) Denaturation

The Protein-Folding Problem• Most proteins
– Probably go through several intermediate states on their way to a stable conformation
– Denaturated proteins no longer work in their unfolded condition
– Proteins may be denaturated by extreme changes in pH or temperature

• Chaperonins– Are protein molecules that assist in the
proper folding of other proteins
Hollowcylinder
Cap
Chaperonin(fully assembled)
Steps of ChaperoninAction: An unfolded poly- peptide enters the cylinder from one end.
The cap attaches, causing the cylinder to change shape insuch a way that it creates a hydrophilic environment for the folding of the polypeptide.
The cap comesoff, and the properlyfolded protein is released.

Nucleic Acids• Nucleic acids store and
transmit hereditary information• There are two types of nucleic
acids– Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)– Ribonucleic acid (RNA)

• DNA– Stores information for the synthesis of specific proteins– Found in the nucleus of cells
• RNA– Reads information in DNA– Transports information to protein building structures
