Protein
A large biomolecules and macromolecules that
comprise one or more long chains of amino acid
residues.It is important to our body as Proteins are
made up of chemical 'building blocks' called amino
acids.Your body uses amino acids to build and repair
muscles and bones and to make hormones and
enzymes.They can also be used as an energy source
for our body to move.

• R is a group varying in composition and structure
called a side chain
Where:
Amino acid
Amino acids are organic
compounds that contain both amino
and carboxylic acid functional
group. Although there are over 500
amino acids that exist in nature, by
far the most important are the 22 a-
amino acid incorporated into
proteins. 20 of which are found
within our body to support our life
Out of the 20
different amino acids
found within our
body,only 11 can be
synthesized and 9
have to be supplied
by foods we eat.
These 9 amino acids
are called essential
amino acids.
Amino acid

Helps to maintain the proper
protein balance in the body. It is
important for the formation of
collagen, elastin, and tooth
enamel, and aids liver and
lipotropic function when
combined with aspartic acid and
methionine
Amino acid

serotonin
Amino acid
For the 9th amino acid - histidine - is only
essential for infants
Its omission from the diets of young infants
gives rise to a depression of weight gain
and of nitrogen retention
Amino acid
Out of the 11 amino acid that are synthesize to
your body or what you called non-essential, 8 are
called conditional amino acid while the
remaining three are nonessential
Amino acid

important for protein modification, and is needed
for making a certain molecule that transmits
signals in the brain (a neurotransmitter)
Amino acid
Aspartate
mainly serves as a neurotransmitter and has been
demonstrated to exhibit various physiological
functions, including nutritional potential,
regulation on reproduction and hormone biology,
and neuron protection.
Amino acid
When two amino acid react with each other in acid-
base reaction a peptide is formed.The basic amino
acid reacts with the acidic carboxylic group of another
amino acid,forming the peptide and a molecule of
water is lost.The bond formed is called a peptide bond,
and the product is a dipeptide because it is made up of
two amino acid units. Longer chains are called
polypeptides and chains of 50 or more amino acids are
called proteins.
Protein
There are 4 characteristic of Protein
and they are:
It is a sequence of a chain of a amino acid
linked together to form a polypeptide chain.
Each amino acid is linked to the next amino
acid through peptide bonds created during
the protein biosynthesis process. The main
purpose of this is to dictates the 3-D
conformation the folded protein will have.
This conformation, in turn, will determine the
function of the protein
Refer to the coiling of the protein chain into a
a-helix structure, formation of b sheets, or
twisting into random structures. These
structures are the results of interactions
between R groups, H-bonding or formation
of –S-S- bonds between chains. It occurs
when the sequence of amino acid are linked
by hydrogen bonds.
Describes the shape of the coiled chain
when it is folded or hydrated in its natural
state. It occurs when certain attractions are
present between alpha helixes and pleated
sheets.
Involves a cluster of several individual peptides
into a final specific shape. A variety of bonding
interactions including hydrogen bonding, salt
bridges, and disulfide bonds hold the various
chains into a particular geometry. It is consisted
more than one amino acid chain. The purpose of
a quaternary protein structure are gene
expression, macromolecular transport, chemical
reaction regulation, and many more
Protein
Another type of protein is the enzymes.
Enzymes are proteins that help speed
up metabolism, or the chemical
reactions in our bodies for some
certain molecules called substrate.
They are known as biological catalyst.
Protein
An example of enzyme that affect a
Substrate is the enzyme lactase
Its role is to breakdown the sugar
lactose into glucose and galactose
Protein
What would happen if you have either
too much or too little protein?
Protein
What would happen if you
Have either too much or too little protein?
If too much:
It can cause symptoms such as intestinal discomfort,
dehydration, nausea, fatigue, headaches, and more.
Chronic protein overconsumption can also increase the
risk of conditions such as cardiovascular disease, blood
vessel disorders, liver and kidney issues, and seizures
Protein
What would happen if you
Have either too much or too little protein?

It can also lead to anemia, when your cells don't get enough oxygen, which makes you tired
  • 46. Melatonin - A hormone made by the pineal gland (tiny organ near the center of the brain). Melatoninhelpscontrolthe body's sleep cycle, and is an antioxidant.It is also made in the laboratoryand sold as a supplement. Glossary Serotonin - a chemical that carries messages between nerve cells in the brain and throughout your body. Serotonin plays a key role in such body functions as mood, sleep, digestion, nausea,wound healing, bone health, blood clotting and sexual desire Hormones - a chemical substances that act like messenger molecules in the body. After being made in one part of the body, they travel to other parts of the body where they help control how cells and organs do their work. Enzymes - proteins that help speed up metabolism,or the chemical reactions in our bodies.They build some substances and break others down. Biomolecule - a chemical compound found in living organisms.These include chemicals that are composed of mainly carbon,hydrogen, oxygen,nitrogen,sulfur and phosphorus. Biomolecules are the building blocks of life and perform important functions in living organisms. Macromolecule - any large molecule created from repeating subunits.Biological macromolecules are referred to as biological molecules and include Carbohydrates,lipids, nucleic acids,and proteins.Industrial macromolecules include elastomers and plastics.
  • 47. Carcinogenesis –also called oncogenesis or tumorigenesis,is the formation of a cancer, whereby normal cells are transformed into cancer cells.The process is characterized by changes at the cellular,genetic,and epigenetic levels and abnormal cell division Glossary Hyperornithinemia - an autosomal recessive disorder that is caused by a deficiency of mitochondrial ornithine transporter 1, resulting in dysfunction of the urea cycle Epinephrine - also known as adrenaline, is both a neurotransmitter and a hormone. It plays an important role in your body's “fight-or-flight”response.It's also used as a medication to treat many life- threatening conditions Norepinephrine - A chemical made by some nerve cells and in the adrenal gland.It can act as both a neurotransmitter (a chemical messenger used by nerve cells) and a hormone (a chemical that travels in the blood and controls the actions of other cells or organs). Dopamine - acts on areas of the brain to give you feelings of pleasure,satisfaction and motivation.Dopamine also has a role to play in controlling memory,mood,sleep, learning, concentration,movement and other body functions. Synthesis - a productionof a substance by the union of chemical elements, groups, or simpler compounds or by the degradationof a complexcompound. protein synthesis
  • 48. Ureagenesis - a way of eliminating the nitrogenous waste of protein metabolism in mammals and,especially,in ruminants Glossary Lipotropic - substances that hasten the removal or decrease the deposition of fat in the liver through their interaction with fat metabolism. Aspartic Acid - an acidic amino acid which is a constituent of most proteins, and also occurs in sugar cane. It is important in the metabolism of nitrogen in animals, and also acts as a neurotransmitter. Retention - the act of retaining something Beta-keratin (β-keratin) - a member of a structural protein family found in the epidermis of reptiles and birds Gluconeogenesis - a pathway consisting of a series of eleven enzyme-catalyzed reactions Methionine - a sulfur-containing amino acid that is a constituent of most proteins. It is an essential nutrient in the diet of vertebrates. Anabolic Precursor - substances that can be converted by the body into anabolic steroids Glutathione - a compound involved as a coenzyme in oxidation–reduction reactions in cells.It is a tripeptide derived from glutamic acid,cysteine,and glycine.
