Students have asked these similar questions
Proteins, which have diverse functions in a cell, are all polymers of the samekinds of monomers—amino acids. Write a short essay (100–150 words) that discusses how the structure of amino acids allows this one type of polymer to perform so many functions.
Draw the primary structure of a protein. Use the basic structure of an amino acid and label what type of bonds a protein has.
draw a model of a protein
Include a brief description of your protein - what protein is it? what details can you share about this protein (for example, a description of it's shape, how big it is (either in kilodaltons or number of amino acids), what is its function)
