Proteins in General
Proteins are made from 20 different
amino acids
These are proteins that increase the rate of chemical reactions in the body.
Enzymes
sickle cell occurs in this structure of the protein
primary structure
T/F proteins have four main structures
true
T/F proteins are made of amino acids
true
Proteins account for more than this much mass of cells
50%
This is the area of an enzyme where the substrate attaches
The active site
genetic disorder where red blood cells are shaped like crescents rather than saucers
sickle- cell anemia
Proteins are composed of which molecules? a. amino acids b. fatty acids c. monosaccharides d. nucleic acids
a. amino acids
Which of the following foods do not belong to the protein group a. meat b. fish c. nuts d. pasta
d. pasta
The sequence of amino acids determines this
the shape of the protein
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering this.
Activation energy
the main symptom of sickle cell is
a person is very tired
These are the four main elements in a protein.
C, H, O, and N
complete proteins are
proteins that use all 20 amino acids
The shape of the protein is the biggest factor that determines its
function
The active site of an enzyme fits with only one type of molecule known as this.
Substrate
T/F sickle cell will affect all four protein structure
true it begins in the primary and will affect secondary, tertiary and quaternary
Form between atoms of sulfur within the protein
disulfide bond
The monomer of a protein is this.
Amino acid
One of the five functions of proteins
structural support
storage and transport
cellular communications
movement
defense against foreign substances
The fact that the active site can only accept one type of substrate is known as this.
Enzyme specificity
This terms means a protein is misshapen and is biologically inactive
denatured
This is the way to acquire proteins.

curly hair and the burnt hair smell so bad
