Protein size is expressed in kilodaltons (kda) 1 dalton (da) = 1 g/mol (mass of h atom) Myoglobin is 16. 4 kda small protein. P-glycoprotein is 170 kda large protein the building block principle of macromolecular structure. Understand amino acids (the building block) understand proteins (the macromolecules) linear chains of amino acids (no branching!) linked by peptide bonds (type of amide bond)
