Types of ProteinsAmino Acids

The Peptide Bond

1

Type Examples Structural tendons, cartilage, hair,

nails Contractile muscles Transport hemoglobin Storage milk Hormonal insulin, growth hormone Enzyme catalyzes reactions in

cells Protection immune response

2

Building blocks of proteins Carboxylic acid group Amino group Side group R gives unique

characteristics

R side chain I

H2H—C —COOH I

H3

H I

H2N—C —COOH I

H glycine

CH3 I

H2N—C —COOH I

H alanine4

Nonpolar R = H, CH3, alkyl groups, aromatic

OPolar ll

R = –CH2OH, –CH2SH, –CH2C–NH2,

(polar groups with –O-, -SH, -N-)Polar/Acidic

R = –CH2COOH, or -COOH

Polar/ BasicR = –CH2CH2NH2

5

Identify each as (1) polar or (2) nonpolar

A. NH2–CH2–COOH (Glycine)

CH3

| CH–OH

B. NH2–CH–COOH (Serine)6

Identify each as (1) polar or (2) nonpolar

A.(2) NH2–CH2–COOH (Glycine)

CH3

| CH–OH |

B. (1) NH2–CH–COOH (Serine)7

10 amino acids not synthesized by the body

arg, his, ile, leu, lys, met, phe, thr, trp, val

Must obtain from the diet All in diary products 1 or more missing in grains

and vegetables

Ionization of the –NH2 and the –COOH group

Zwitterion has both a + and – charge Zwitterion is neutral overall
