What is protein Proteins are large, complex molecules that play many critical roles in the body. They do most of the work in cells and are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's tissues and organs
Types of protein Proteins are broadly classified into two major types depending upon there structure and function Globular protein Fibrous protein
Globular protein Compact form Water soluble (hydrophilic side chains) Important role in enzymatic and molecular action Hemoglobin , myoglobin, insulin
Fibrous protein Long protein filament Water insoluble (hydrophobic side chains) Important role paly in Stability Collagen, elastin
Structure of protein Proteins are actually amino acid chain, these are also known as polypeptide chains, formed in the result of translation Primary structure Secondary structure Tertiary structure Quaternary structure
Primary structure protein Consist of amino acid sequence Stability factor: Peptide bond Terminal electrostatic interaction Cis /trans structure (trans isomerase )
Secondary structure protein Alpha helix Single stranded, Right handed coiled, spiral with 3.6 amino acid per spiral turn Beta pleated sheet Double stranded, can be parallel or anti parallel Beta bends Join two beta sheets or/and alpha helix with each other
Cont’d Super secondary motifs These consist number of alpha helix & beta sheets with in the same strand Stability factors Peptide bond Terminal electrostatic interaction H-BONDING
Tertiary structure protein protein's geometric shape. The tertiary structure will have a single polypeptide chain "backbone" with one or more protein secondary structures STABILITY FACTORS Peptide bond Terminal electrostatic interaction H-BONDING Hydrophobic interaction Disulphide bond
Quaternary structure protein A rrangement of multiple folded protein or coiling protein molecules in a multi-subunit complex Stability factors H-BONDING Ionic bond/ salt bridge
Protein Folding
Chaperone these are protein molecules Function: Help in protein folding Prevent aggregation Example: GroEL is bacterial chaperone Heat shock proteins in eukaryotes
Models of protein folding Diffusion collision model Nucleation –condensation model
MISFOLDING OF PROTEIN Following factors will lead to mis -folding of proteins absence of normal supporting/co factors absence of chaperone protein Change in temp Change in pH
FATE OF normal PROTEIN MOLECULE After there formation by ribosome and along side folding in RER, they under go post translational modifications in ER, Golgi and cytoplasm The cytoplasmic proteins act as enzyme and help in metabolic process While surface proteins move toward the cell surface where they act as receptor molecule/ gated channels/ pump proteins Extracellular protein moves out side by exocytosis and act as circulating molecule/ hormones etc
Fate of abnormal protein In normal case abnormal/ mis folded proteins are degraded by Ubiquitin proteasome pathway Mis folded proteins act as non function or malfunction proteins which may result in disease process Example; Amyloid protein result in Alzheimer disease
