Document Summary

Membrane proteins structural properties, enzymes: structural proteins inside of cells (intracellular, globular proteins, membrane proteins, protein data base (pdb) look at 3d structures of proteins. Fibers inside cells: long polymers made up of protein subunits, actin, microfilaments muscle contraction, but a part of every cell of the body, including rbcs. Intermediate filaments: make up cytoskeleton inside cell. Cytoskeleton: actin filaments made of actin monomers (green circles, g actin can polymerize to f (filamentous) actin. Important for cell shape, movement, division: microtubules made of tubulin monomers (blue circles, can carry vesicles, neurotransmitters, etc. across cells, carry cargo around using dyenin and kinesin. Actin filament: 374 subunits that form a globular 3d structure (g actin, quaternary state is a long filament (f actin) that can then perform its function, change of actin to f-actin is regulated by atp. If you depolymerize the filament, you can break it apart. Globular proteins myoglobin muscles of aquatic vertebrates like whales: richest source, monomeric protein.
