Fibrous VS Globular proteins Flashcards
What is the shape of fibrous protein
Long linear and flat
What is the strucutre of fibrous proteins
They have primary and secondary structure
It is not folded
And it contains long parralel polypeptide chains
Are firbrous proteins soluable
Mostly insoluable
What is the stabability of firbous proteins
They are very strong therefore it has tensile strength
and it has cross linkages at intervals
What is the function of fibrous proteins
used in connective tissues
and and stregthen things
What are examples of Fibrous proteins
Bones and teeth
What is the shape of globular proteins
spherical and circular
What is the structure of globular proteins
they can take part in folding
and have a complex tertiary structure
Is globular proteins soulable or nah
soluable
What is the stability of globular proteins
they are weaker because they dissolve in water
They are easily broken down
Less bonds holding it together
What is the function of globular proteins
Roles in metabolic reaction
Transports in proteins
Examples of globular proteins
haemoglobin
enzymes and hormones and anti bodies
what are the propertie sof fibrous proteins
little or non termitary structure
long parralel polypeptide
insoluble
