Protein composition (CHNOS)
Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Sulfur
Amino Acid (one, hundreds)
One amino acid is a monomer, proteins are made of hundreds of amino acid units
Di-,t ri-, tetrapeptide
Di = 2 amino acids
Tri = 3 amino acids
Tetra = 4 amino acids
Oligopeptide
Peptide chain with up to 25 amino acid units
Polypeptide
Chain with more than 25 amino acid units
Protein definition
Native structure of a folded polypeptide
Denaturation definition
Process where protein looses the quaternary, tertiary and secondary structure
Zwitterion definition
amino acids in solution become dipolar ions -> NH3+ & COO- (both negatively and positively charged
