Step 1 : Introduction to the question "8. Proteins are biological polymers that play all sorts of roles within our bodies. Haemoglobin is a protein, as are insulin and keratin. What is the general building block common to all proteins?"
...1. alkenes 2. aldehydes 3. phosphates 4. amino acids Proteins are made up of different amino acids (there are 20 common amino acids) joined together. Amino acids contain both an amine (-NH2) group and a carboxylic acid (RCOOH) in the same molecule. They join together through the amine group of one molecule reacting with the carboxylic acid portion of another. This makes a new functional group generally called an amide, but when the end product is a protein, this new link is called a peptide bond. As mentioned in question 1, haemoglobin is involved in transporting oxygen around the body. Insulin is the hormone responsible for controlling glucose metabolism and keratin is found in wool, feathers, hooves, silk and fingernails.
