PROTEINS

Amino acid monomers to proteins Amino acids linked together Long chains of amino acids linked together in a specific order make a specific protein.

Elements of proteins Carbon Hydrogen Oxygen Nitrogen (and sometimes Sulfur) Protein comes from the Greek word protos, meaning "first." These nutrients are the basic elements of living cells, of first importance.

Some Amino Acids like Methionine require sulfur as well as CHON.

PROTEIN MONOMERS = AMINO ACIDS What is the same about each…What is different? The amino acid Alanine The amino acid Serine Amino acid with the “R” Group not specified Draw one example

The different “R” groups give different amino acids different characteristics. 3 MAIN JOBS OF PROTEINS Structure Enzymes (affect rate of reactions) Transport (protein channels & hormones)

3 MAIN JOBS OF PROTEINS 1.Structure some proteins provide structural support: collagen, hair

2.Enzymes (affect rate of reactions) Enzymes speed up reactions.

3.Transport (protein channels) Transport molecules across cell membranes.

Hormones serve as chemical messengers, carrying signals from one part of the body to another. 3.Transport Hormones Some hormones are proteins; insulin and growth hormones are 2 examples.

Hemoglobin protein transports oxygen in red blood cells.

We saw how different proteins have different jobs, but how are different proteins made?

Just like letters of the alphabet can make thousands of words. RAT TAR ITS SIT 20 different amino acid monomers can make thousands of different proteins…

20 different amino acid monomers can make thousands of different proteins…

Which protein is made depends on … 1.Which amino acids it is made of 2.What order the amino acids are in.

Instructions for arranging amino acids into proteins are found in the DNA.

5 functions of proteins in plants & animals Controls rates of reactions (enzymes) Regulate cell processes Cell repair Transports materials in and out of cells Fights disease Animals also use proteins to form bones and muscles, supplying raw materials

Foods rich in proteins Meat, fish, eggs Milk, nuts, soy products These contain the 8 AA not made in your body

You can test for protein using biuret. Negative=blue Positive = purple

Warning disturbing pictures

What happens when you don’t get enough? A deficiency of protein in the diet leads to 1. Weight loss 2. Anemia 3. Swollen abdomen 4. Graying of hair 5. Slow healing of wounds 6. Decreased resistance to diseases 7. Muscular pain 8. Overall retarded growth
