Document Summary

Support that is, keratin forms hair and nails, collagen lends support to ligaments and skin. Transport: that is, channel and carrier proteins in cell membranes allow substances to leave and enter the cell, that is, transport molecules in the blood.

Components: an amino group, a carboxyl group and an r group. Each amino acid differs in its r group. The polar covalent bond between two amino acids. Three or more amino acids linked together. A protein"s 3-dimensional shape is closely linked to its function. Denaturation the change in the shape of a protein; caused by extreme heat or ph: disrupts the protein"s function. All proteins have primary, secondary, and tertiary levels of structure; only a few have quaternary structure. Shapes are created by hydrogen bonding between amino acids.
