1. What are proteins?
Proteins are complex macromolecules that are essential for a wide
variety of biological processes. Here are 15 points to explain what
proteins are:
1.Proteins are large molecules made up of one or more polypeptide
chains, which are long chains of amino acids linked together by
peptide bonds.
2.There are 20 different types of amino acids that can be
incorporated into a polypeptide chain, each with a different side
chain that determines its unique properties.
3.The sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain is determined
by the genetic code, which specifies the order of nucleotides in DNA
or RNA.
4.The primary structure of a protein refers to the linear sequence of
amino acids in a polypeptide chain.
5.The secondary structure of a protein refers to the regular patterns
2. 6.The tertiary structure of a protein refers to the overall three-dimensional shape of a polypeptide chain, which is critical to
its function.
7.The quaternary structure of a protein refers to the arrangement of multiple polypeptide chains into a larger protein
complex.
8.Proteins can have a wide variety of functions, including catalyzing chemical reactions, providing structural support, and
transporting molecules.
9.Enzymes are a type of protein that catalyze chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the
reaction to occur.
10,Antibodies are a type of protein that play a critical role in the immune system by recognizing and binding to foreign
molecules.
11.Hormones are a type of protein that regulate a wide variety of physiological processes, including growth and
development, metabolism, and reproduction.
12.Proteins can be synthesized by cells using the process of translation, which involves the ribosome reading the genetic

Classification of protiens
Primary structure Secondary structure Tertiary structure Quaternary structure
Primary structure
refers to the linear
sequence of amino
acids in a protein chain.
The order of amino
acids is determined by
the genetic code, which
specifies the sequence

arrangement of
multiple protein
subunits into a larger,
functional protein
complex. Examples of
quaternary structures

composed of two
heavy chains and two
light chains.
Tertiary structure refers
to the overall 3D shape

5. Activity – Evil scientist’s council
Tools
Device with LifeLiqe – “HIV virus” 3D model, Internet connection.
Instructions
Open Lifeliqe “HIV virus” model and show it to the class. If you have a tablet, use it as your
“picture” through role play of an evil scientist. Talk about HIV as your virus which will rule the
world, structuring text on the ideas from the bulletins in a following point. It should look like:
Glad to see everyone on the evil council. I present to you my HIV virus. Its symptoms diversifies
from person to person, but mostly in the first stage people become acutely ill, having flu-like
symptoms (fever, sore throat, headaches). However, the virus cannot be destroyed, even if the
first acute illnesses diminish. It prevails silently in the second stage making its host look
healthy and then, in the last stage, virus unleashes a full attack, destroying the victim’s
immune system. From now on, it keeps victim’s defense very weak so even the ordinary
curable illnesses can become a serious threat, even fatal. The Infected host then becomes a
medium to transfer the virus through sexual intercourse, sharing injections when taking drugs
or even through blood transfusions. People with a weaker immune system are more likely to
get it. There is no cure for it yet, but many supportive treatments can cause it to rapidly slow
down the evolution process and keep its host relatively healthy and long-living. Pretty evil,
don’t you think?
