Question

Give classification of proteins.

Answer 1

Protein can be categorized into two types: complete and incomplete proteins. Proteins are made up of smaller units, called amino acids. Complete proteins contain all of the amino acids your body needs and include meat, fish, poultry, dairy, and soy products.

Answer 2

•Primary- the covalent linkages of the proteins

Primary-structure-proteins

•Secondary- the linear peptide chains fold either into an alpha-helical structure(coiled) or a beta-pleated structure(sheets) which contain hydrogen bonds.

Secondary-structure-of-proteins

•Tertiary- The arrangement and interconnection of proteins into specific loops and bends forms the tertiary structures. This structure contains hydrogen, ionic and disulfide bonds.

•Quarternary- this structure is proteins containing more than one peptide chain.
