Introducing proteins
Proteins are a diverse group of large and complex polymer molecules, made up of long chains of amino acids.
They have a wide range of biological roles, including: structural: proteins are the
main component of body tissues, such as muscle, skin, ligaments and hair
catalytic: all enzymes are proteins, catalyzing many biochemical reactions
signalling: many hormones and receptors are proteins immunological: all antibodies are proteins.

The general structure of amino acids
All amino acids have the same general structure: the only difference between each one is the nature of the R group. The R group therefore defines an amino acid.
aminogroup
carboxylic acid group
R group
The R group represents a side chain from the central ‘alpha’ carbon atom, and can be anything from a simple hydrogen atom to a more complex ring structure.

Polypeptides
When more amino acids are added to a dipeptide, a polypeptide chain is formed.
A protein consists of one or more polypeptide chains folded into a highly specific 3D shape.
There are up to four levels of structure in a protein: primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary. Each of these play an important role in the overall structure and function of the protein.

Bonds in proteins
The 3D shape of a protein is maintained by several types of bond, including:
hydrogen bonds:involved in all levels of structure.
hydrophobic interactions:between non-polar sections of the protein.
disulfide bonds: one of the strongest and most important type of bond in proteins. Occur between two cysteine amino acids.

Fibrous proteins
Fibrous proteins are formed from parallel polypeptide chains held together by cross-links. These form long, rope-like fibres, with high tensile strength and are generally insoluble in water.
collagen – the main component of connective tissue such as ligaments, tendons, cartilage.
keratin – the main component of hard structures such as hair, nails, claws and hooves.
silk – forms spiders’ webs and silkworms’ cocoons.

Globular proteins
Globular proteins usually have a spherical shape caused by tightly folded polypeptide chains.
The chains are usually folded so that hydrophobic groups are on the inside, while the hydrophilic groups are on the outside. This makes many globular proteins soluble in water.
enzymes – such as lipase and DNA polymerase.
hormones – such as oestrogen and insulin.
transport proteins – such as haemoglobin, myoglobin and those embedded in membranes.

Denaturing proteins
If the bonds that maintain a protein’s shape are broken, the protein will stop working properly and is denatured.
Changes in temperature, pH or salt concentration can all denature a protein, although the specific conditions will vary from protein to protein.
Fibrous proteins lose their structural strength when denatured, whereas globular proteins become insoluble and inactive.
denaturation: bonds broken

Introduction to lipids
Lipids are a diverse group of compounds that are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol.
The most common types of lipid are triglycerides (sometimes known as true fats or neutral fats), but other important lipids include waxes, steroids and cholesterol.
Like carbohydrates, lipids contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, but they have a higher proportion of hydrogen and a lower proportion of oxygen.

Role of lipids
Lipids are stored in adipose tissue, which has several important roles, including:
The major biological role of lipids is as an energy source. Lipids provide more than twice the amount of energy as carbohydrates – about 38 kJ/g.
heat insulation – in mammals, adipose tissue underneath the skin helps reduce heat loss.
protection – adipose tissue around delicate organs such as the kidneys acts as a cushion against impacts.
