Proteins
As described earlier in Section 1, a protein is a natural polymer that is composed of
monomers called amino acids. Proteins carry out many important functions in the body,
such as speeding up chemical reactions (enzymes), transporting oxygen in the blood
(hemoglobin), and regulating body responses (hormones). Figure 2.27 shows two of the
common 20 amino acids. During protein synthesis, a very complex process in living cells,
the sequence of amino acids in proteins and this sequence determines the structure and
amide linkages form between amino acids to make proteins. The cell's DNA determines
