Study Notes
Protein Types
- Simple proteins: Hydrolyze into only amino acids.
- Compound proteins: Consist of a protein part and a non-protein part.
- Derived proteins: Formed from the breakdown of simple or compound proteins.
Compound Protein Examples
- Nucleoproteins: Bind to nucleic acid, with supportive and protective functions.
- Found in human body, milk, muscle, and salmon.
- Examples include hemoglobin (main protein in blood), insulin, antibodies, LDL, HDL, ribosomes, and ferritin (iron storage protein).
- Phosphoproteins: Protein + phosphoric acid.
- Examples include casein (milk protein) and glutenin (wheat protein).
- Flavo-proteins: Protein + FAD or FMN (yellow color).
- FAD/FMN is attached to the protein via the OH group.
- Responsible for lipid transport in blood.
- Glycoproteins: Protein + carbohydrate.
- Examples include blood group antigens, mucin (in the gastrointestinal tract), and zein (corn protein).
Noteworthy Points
- Zein: Found in maize but deficient in certain amino acids.
- Glutenin: Found in wheat.
- Casein: Found in milk.
- Lactalbumin: Found in milk, along with zinc.
