2 Natural products: proteins
Intermediate 2 Chemistry Unit 2(e)

3 Key questions What is a protein? Why are they important to life?

4 Importance to life The major structural materials of animal tissue
Role in the regulation of biochemical processes enzymes hormones

5 Building blocks

6

7 Linking amino acids The monomers are amino acids
With two functional groups per molecule, they form polymers Specifically, they are condensation polymers The proteins formed (polypeptides) contain the amide link (peptide link)

8

9 Breaking down proteins
Occurs during digestion Is catalysed by enzymes Is a hydrolysis reaction
