Role of Structural Chemistry in Life Science What do proteins do Proteins are the basis of how biology gets things done. As enzymes,they are the driving force behind all of the biochemical reactions which makes biology work. As structural elements,they are the main constituents of our bones,muscles,hair,skin and blood vessels. As antibodies,they recognize invading elements and allow the immune system to get rid of the unwanted invaders
Role of Structural Chemistry Role of Structural Chemistry in Life Science in Life Science What do proteins do ? Proteins are the basis of how biology gets things done. • As enzymes, they are the driving force behind all of the biochemical reactions which makes biology work. • As structural elements, they are the main constituents of our bones, muscles, hair, skin and blood vessels. • As antibodies, they recognize invading elements and allow the immune system to get rid of the unwanted invaders
What are proteins made of Proteins are necklaces of amino acids,i.e.long chain molecules Primary protein structure is sequence of a chain of amino acide Amino Acids NH H- C-COOH Amino Acid Objective of Structural Chemistry 1)Determining the structure of a known substance 2)Understanding the structure- property relationship 3)Predicting a substance with specific structure and property
