  Proteins: Structure, Functions, Sources, Types, Advantages and Biological Importance

  By Dr. Anita Gaur, AKANKSHA KUMARI

  Abstract: Proteins are essential biological macromolecules composed of amino acids linked by peptide bonds and folded into specific three-dimensional structures. Their structural organization is closely associated with their biological functions, including structural support, catalysis, transport, regulation, defense, movement and storage. This review summarizes the basic features of proteins, including amino-acid composition, levels of structural organization, classification, major biological functions and important dietary sources. It also discusses the relationship between amino-acid sequence, …
