CHEM 41 ISOLATION OF ALBUMIN FROM CHICKEN LIVER MUSA - NAPOLES - OLIVA - SAMSON Proteins Proteins have critical function in nearly all biological processes function follows structure adopt a unique conformation due to internal bonding patterns from amino acid sequence conformational specificity allows proteins to bind to specific molecules that lead to certain reactions General Steps to Determine Protein Structure SOURCE ISOLATE PROTEIN CONFIRM IDENTITY 1. Homogenization 2. Purification techniques based on The identity of protein We must first figure out specific physical and can be detected through the source of the protein chemical attributes qualitative tests that give we aim to investigate. (dialysis, colored species. chromatography, gel electrophoresis) Albumin Albumin heterogenous group of proteins that provide colloidal osmotic effect keeps intravascular fluid inside vessels and prevent leakage synthesized in the liver and circulated via blood plasma facilitates transport of nutrients and hormones composition: 67% alpha helices 10% turns 23% random coils 0 beta sheets Significance Albumin concentration reflects physiological state of the organism. Knowing the structure of albumin may help us in understanding the mechanisms that underlie 35 its production and 2 ? regulation.
