Protein Chemistry Basics: Primary Structure of Proteins

#foodscience #foodtechnology #foodchemistry #proteinstructure #protein This video explains the primary structure of proteins. The lecture covers the following: a. 0:35 Amide bond formation. b. 2:06 Properties of amide bond. c. 3:26 Torsion angles Proteins are formed by peptide bond between carbonyl group of an amino acid with amine group of the adjacent amino acid. It is a partial double bond which confers limited freedom of rotation to the torsion angles. Sources: 1.Parkin, K.L., & Fennema, O.R. (Eds.). (2007). Fennema's Food Chemistry (4th ed.).
