Introduction: All the enzymes in the body that are crucial for the biochemical reactions are proteins. The proteins are made of amino acids. The amino acids are of 20 types that combine in a varied manner to form proteins. The amino acids join together by peptide bonds. Proteins act as major substrates and reactants for the
