Document Summary
Many proteins are made of one chain and their highest level of structure is tertiary (one sub unit), most one polypeptide chin. Some proteins more than one chain comes together quaternary structure (multi sub unit) Proteins held by non-covalent interactions (hydrogen, ionic, van der wals, hydrophobic interactions) (look) Three different versions people look at (ribbon model, space filling model, wireframe model) Let"s say target model (look) protein is change. Antibody example: antibody and protein from flu virus, that antibody matches the shape of the flu virus, so, it will bind to that portion of protein of the flu virus. How do they know where every single atom is: x ray crystallography, scientists will grow crystals, let"s say scientists has successful grown crystals, other techniques. Picture of cell: it is eukaryotic, has nucleus, internal organelles, typical animal cell surrounded by plasma membrane, inside organelles that carry out function, there are lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids (transmit genetic information)
