Functions of Proteins PPT: Proteins perform a vast array of essential functions in living organisms. Structurally, they provide support and shape to cells and tissues—collagen in connective tissues and keratin in hair and nails are examples. Enzymatic proteins, like amylase and DNA polymerase, catalyze biochemical reactions necessary for life. Transport […]
Characteristics of Peptide Bond PPT: A peptide bond is a covalent bond formed between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another, releasing a molecule of water in the process. This reaction is known as a dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. Peptide bonds are planar […]
Biosynthesis of Amino Acids PPT: Amino acid biosynthesis is a key cellular process where cells produce amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. It occurs mainly in the cytoplasm using intermediates from glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the pentose phosphate pathway. While essential amino acids must be obtained from […]
