Across
- 4. contain two major forms of protein: whey and casein.
- 5. is a good source of certain nutrients, especially vitamin B-12 and iron.
- 6. acts on fats and performs hydrolysis of fats (not of carbohydrates, fats and proteins).
- 8. is the protein that makes blood red. It is composed of four protein chains, two alpha chains and two beta chains, each with a ring-like heme group containing an iron atom.
- 10. is the principal enzyme involved in protein digestion
- 11. can delay proteolytic degradation of protein partners (e.g., histatin 1) when complexed and has the function in carbohydrate breakdown.
- 13. are accumulated in legume seeds during development inside protein bodies (storage vacuoles) and provide ammonia, carbon, and amino acids during seed development.
- 14. are linked together to form a polypeptide chain, which folds into a three dimensional (3D) structure to constitute a functional protein.
Down
- 1. is an enzyme (a protein that causes a chemical reaction to occur) normally produced in your small intestine that's used to digest lactose.
- 2. forms filaments that provide cells with mechanical support and driving forces for movement.
- 3. is protein molecules made up of amino acids
- 7. is an enzyme that catalyzes proteolysis, breaking down proteins into smaller polypeptides or single amino acids, and spurring the formation of new protein products.
- 9. are a staple source of calories, carbohydrates, B-vitamins, and protein
- 12. is the prototype of a molecular motor—a protein that converts chemical energy in the form of ATP to mechanical energy, thus generating force and movement.
