Give an example of a protein for each of the functions of proteins. (Support –Metabolism – Transport –Defense – Regulation – Motion)
support protein - the main function is to provide mechanical support eg. keratin, collagen etc.
Metabolism - Enzymes are proteins that catalyze biological processes. eg. lipase that help in lipid metabolism, Amylase that is found in saliva
transport Protein -its function is to transport biomolecules. eg- hemoglobin that carries O2
Defence protein - involves in the immune response all antibodies are proteins. eg- fibrinogen is blood clotting protein
regulator protein - helps in regulating cellular and physiological activity. eg- insulin
motion proetins are same as transport proteins

Problem 14.29 Part A Give examples of proteins that provide following categories of protein functions. Drag the protein functions on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to match the proteins. Reset Help Catalytic Immune system O2 transport Contractile Cross-membrane immunoglobins - hormones myoglobin myosin keratin- transport Structural Regulatory histones enzymes receptor proteins collagen- actin- hemoglobin
V. (a). List the 3 proteins that are transported by the protein. For example: DNA polymerase, ribosomal protein, etc.) for transpoet of proteins in eukaryotic cells. For each, give 2 examples of that mechanism. (Does not need to be specific protein ane. just the function of (b) What is the molecular mechanism that determines which of the above transport mechanisms is specific protein? nu iいUw Lili い used for a ve (c) Which type of protein does not use any...
Show and discuss one example of each of each of these protein classes: 1) Membrane Proteins, 2) Receptors, 3) Carrier Proteins. Here, elucidate the protein structure and function. So, what structural features of the protein allow it to function in this protein class capacity? (e.g. alpha helices are a common feature among many membrane proteins that allow them to respond to different external signals)
Describe an example of each type of regulation in the context of glucose metabolism. Factors That Determine Activity of Enzymes: 1) Extracellular signal 2) Transcription of specific genes 3) mRNA degradation 4) mRNA translation on ribosome 5) Protein degradation 6) enzyme sequestered in subcellular organelle 7) Enzyme binds substrate 8) Enzyme binds ligand 9) Enzyme undergoes phosphorylation/dephosphorylation 10) Enzyme combines with regulatory protein
Proteins have numerous important functions. For example, they are important for cell growth, repair, and maintenance. They also help maintain acid-base balance by acting as buffers Choose the statements below that correctly describe a function of proteins in the body. Select all that apply Proteins are stored in adipose tissue to be used as an energy source later. Proteins help transport nutrients and other substances Proteins play an important role in immunity Proteins help speed up chemical reactions. Proteins help...
Give specific functions of membrane proteins: Transport, Enzymatic activity, Signal transduction, cell-cell transduction, intercellular joining, attachment to the cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix (ECM)
Hemoglobin consists of four globular proteins, each formed from a polypeptide chain. Each globular protein contains a nonprotein group with an iron ion. This iron ion binds to an oxygen molecule. Thus, every hemoglobin protein can bind four oxygen molecules. Select the correct statement about oxygen transport below. a. Myoglobin transports oxygen through the bloodstream to tissue. b. To carry oxygen, iron must be in its nonheme form. c. Erythrocytes contain abundant myoglobin for transporting oxygen. d. Hemoglobin is found...
Metabolism Overview Worksheet Protein Carbohydrates Lipids Using the diagram on the next page as a guide, explain in your own words the three major processes. You do not need to explain each step in detail but provide a summary of the starting substrate (be specific for each macronutrient in glycolysis), the purpose, the mechanisms, and the end products. Use your book as a reference. 1) Glycolysis: 2) TCA Cycle: 3) Electron Transport Chain: Electron Transport Chain # 3 osplay Setting:...
1. A biochemist is attempting to separate a DNA-binding protein (protein X) from other proteins in a solution. Only three other proteins (A, B, and C) are present. The proteins have the following properties: pl (isoelectric point) Size Mr Bind to DNA? protein A 7.4 protein B 3.8 protein C 7.9 protein X7.8 82,000 21,500 23,000 22,000 yes yes no yes What type of protein separation techniques might she use to protein X from the other proteins. Give a flow...
Why do cells use protein complexes or assemblies regularly and not individual proteins to execute functions of the cell? Include illustrations along with your explanation for why this is the case. Be very thorough and specific with your answer.
