Classes
Fibrous
Globular
Functions?
• Shape is critical to function!
3d shape: demonstration
Structure and Function
• 3d shape of the protein is incredibly
important!!!
• If it changes shape, it probably won’t be able
to do its job anymore.

Contractile proteins
• movement
Structural Proteins
• Support
• protection
Transport Proteins
• Cell membrane and in blood (hemoglobin)
Communication
• Receptor proteins
• Hormones

Receptor proteins - Communication
Maintain fluid balance (blood)
Structural proteins – support
Contractile proteins - movement
Transport proteins – in cell membrane,
hemoglobin
• Antibodies – immune system
• Hormones (communication)
• Biological catalysts (speed up chemical reactions)
- ENZYMES
3D shape: modeling
• Obtain a strip of paper. Mark off every 2
blocks.
• Pick out two squares – leaving space between
them – and color them yellow. Do the same
for red, blue, green, and purple.
• Color in the rest of the squares with your
choice of colors, in any order you wish…
the colored strip
• This represents PRIMARY STRUCTURE for an
amino acid.
• Describe primary structure in your notebook.
3D shape: modeling part 2
• Now take your strip and fold it as
demonstrated.
• This represents SECONDARY STRUCTURE.
3D shape: modeling part 3
• Yellow is attracted to yellow. Use a stapler to
attach your yellow squares together.
• Blue and Red are attracted to one another.
Use a stapler to attach those together.
• Green and purple are attracted to one
Questions to answer…
• What types of bonds hold the amino acids
together?
• What types of bonds hold the 3d shape of a
protein together?
• Can these “stabilizing bonds” withstand heat?
• What happens to a protein when it gets heated?
