Summary

This document is a sample answer to a protein question from a 2014 past paper. It covers the topic of protein classification into simple and conjugated proteins, examples of different types of proteins, and protein structure, including primary, secondary, and tertiary structures, with explanations and diagrams.

# Protein 1.1.2 ## Low Cost Protein Foods (3 @ 3mk) | Name Protein Food | Meal | Healthy Eating | |:---|:---|:---| | Eggs (32cents each) | Lunch | Cheese Omlette / Fresh Green Salad, 3 | | Pulse Vegetables (Tin Kidney Bean) | Meat Substitute | Bean Chilli / Brown Rice (Kidney, Butter, Black Beans) 3 | | Quinoa (500g / €1.09 Tesco) | Dinner | Grilled Chicken / Quinoa / Chor grilled vegetables 3 | ## Classification of Protein (Simple / Conjugated) - 3 groups @ 4mus each - 6 points @ 2mus each - 24mus. ### Simple - Animal (4) - Globular (2) - Ovalbumin (egg white) - Keratin (nails) - Lactalbumin (milk) - Fibrous (2) - Collagen (skin) - Plant (4) - Glutelins (2) - Glutenin (wheat) - Gliadin (wheat) - Prolamines (2) - Zein (maize) - Oryzenin (rice) ### Conjugated - Lipoproteins - LDL (low density Lipoprotein) - low cholesterol (blood) - Lecithin (egg yolk) - RNA (genetic material) - Nucleoproteins - DNA (cells) - Chromo proteins - Haemoglobin (blood) - Myoglobin (muscle) - Phospho proteins - Casein (milk) - Vitellin (egg yolk) ## Supplementary Value / Complementary Role (8mk) [See Sample answer Q1.B. Protein 2020] ## Structure (Primary/secondary / Tertiary) (3 @ Smk) ### Primary Structure - Primary structure of protein refers to the order sequence that amino acids appear on a protein chain. - Example of a protein chain 'sequence' - Val = Valine - Leu = Leucine - Iso = Isoleucine - Gly = Glycine ``` Va - Leu - Iso - Gly - Leu ``` - The linkage between the amino acids on each protein chain is called peptide linkage where one molecule of water is eliminated in a condensation reaction each time any two amino acids chemically join together. ### Secondary Structure - Secondary structure of protein refers to further linking on the protein chain ie. beyond peptide linkage. Usually due to the formation of disulphide bonds / bridges and hydrogen bonds resulting in protein chains having spiral or helix structures. - Disulphide bridges can form between two neighbouring protein chains. ``` Cysteine HSCH₂ - C = O / N H H R = HSCH₂ (contains SH group ie. Sulphur Containing group) ``` - The SH group of the amino acid cysteine on one protein chain "bonds" with the SH group of another cysteine on a neighbouring chain forming a disulphide bond / bridge. This results in the protein chains having a double helix structure. ``` PROTEIN CHAIN No.1 -Cyst -va -leu -iso - cyst - SH | SH | SH | SH PROTEIN CHAIN No. 2 -Cyst - Iso -ly - leu - cyst - ``` - Hychoger bonds are weaker than disulphide bonds / bridges. - They form when the H (Hychoger) of the serine on one protein chain (amino group) of the Olt (Hydroxyl group) of the COOH (carboxyl group) of tyrosine on the neighbouring protein chain. ``` Protein Chain No.1 Serine - H - O - tyrosine ↑ Hydroger Bond. ↓ serine - H - O - tyrosine Protein Chain No. 2. ``` ### Tertiary Structure - Tertiary structure refers to the pattern of folding on protein chains, where the protein chains have a three dimensional (3D) structure. This structure is maintained by the presence of cross links. - Globular proteins have a 3D structure that is roughly spherical and resembles a ball of wool or twine eg. Casein - milk / Ovalbumin - egg white. ``` AP AR AA AA இ AA ``` - Fibrous proteins have a 3D zig zag structure which gives the protein elastic properties' eg. - gluten (wheat) / - collagen (skin) ``` eg. Gluten is Composed of Two interlocking, coctide chains. ``` ``` Glutenin XXXXXXXXXX Gliadin ```
