From amino acids to functional proteins

From amino acids to functional proteins

Amino acid condensation reaction and protein structure hierarchy from primary to quaternary structure Proteins are polymers made from amino acids, and human proteins use 20 common amino acids. Each amino acid has an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom and a variable R group attached to a central carbon.

Step-by-step lessons covering Edexcel A A Level Biology Proteins, enzymes and enzyme kinetics for A Level Biology. Each lesson works through exam-style questions in Paper 1, Paper 2 and Paper 3 format. Build a strong foundation in cell biology and biochemistry early on, since later topics on genetics, ecology and physiology all draw on these core concepts.
