  1. 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

  2. Table 5.1 • An overview of protein functions

  3. Substrate binds to enzyme. 1 Active site is available for a molecule of substrate, the reactant on which the enzyme acts. 2 2 Substrate (sucrose) Glucose Enzyme (sucrase) OH H2O Fructose H O 4 Products are released. 3 Substrate is converted to products. Figure 5.16 • Enzymes • Are a type of protein that acts as a catalyst, speeding up chemical reactions

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

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

  17. What Determines Protein Conformation? • Protein conformation Depends on the physical and chemical conditions of the protein’s environment • Temperature, pH, etc. affect protein structure

  18. Denaturation Normal protein Denatured protein Renaturation Figure 5.22 Denaturation is when a protein unravels and loses its native conformation(shape)

  19. 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

  20. Correctlyfoldedprotein Polypeptide Cap Hollowcylinder 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. Steps of ChaperoninAction: An unfolded poly- peptide enters the cylinder from one end.
