			===Secondary Structure===
			The secondary structure refers to local folded structures that form within a polypeptide due to interactions between atoms of the backbone. The most common types of secondary structures are the [[alpha helix]] and the [[beta pleated sheet]].

			===Tertiary Structure===
			The tertiary structure is the overall three-dimensional structure of a polypeptide. It is determined by interactions among various side chains (R groups) of the amino acids.

			===Quaternary Structure===
			Some proteins are made up of multiple polypeptide chains, also known as subunits. The quaternary structure is the arrangement of these subunits in a multi-subunit complex.

'''Protein''' is a fundamental class of [[biomolecule]]s present in all living organisms. Proteins are composed of one or more long chains of [[amino acid]] residues. They play a critical role in virtually all biological processes, including [[cell structure]] and [[function]], [[enzyme]] catalysis, [[cell signaling]], and [[immune response]]. The shape and structure of a protein determine its function. Proteins can be classified based on their function, structure, and solubility.

==Structure==
Proteins are made up of [[amino acid]]s linked together by peptide bonds in a linear chain. This chain folds into a three-dimensional structure, which is essential for its function. The structure of proteins can be described at four levels:
* '''Primary structure''' - the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain.
* '''Secondary structure''' - local structures formed by hydrogen bonding within the polypeptide chain, such as [[alpha helix|α-helices]] and [[beta sheet|β-sheets]].
* '''Tertiary structure''' - the overall three-dimensional structure of a single protein molecule.
* '''Quaternary structure''' - the structure formed by several protein molecules (polypeptide chains), usually called protein subunits, which function as a single protein complex.

==Function==
Proteins perform a vast array of functions within organisms. Some of the key functions include:
* '''Enzymatic activity''' - Many proteins act as [[enzyme]]s, speeding up chemical reactions without being consumed in the process.
* '''Structural support''' - Proteins like [[collagen]], [[keratin]], and [[elastin]] provide structural support to cells and tissues.
* '''Transport and storage''' - Proteins such as [[hemoglobin]] transport oxygen in the blood, while others store essential molecules for later use.
* '''Signal transduction''' - Proteins are involved in transmitting signals within and between cells.
* '''Immune response''' - Antibodies are proteins that bind to specific foreign particles, such as viruses and bacteria, to help protect the body.
* '''Cell adhesion''' - Proteins are involved in binding cells together and to the extracellular matrix.

==Synthesis and Degradation==
Protein synthesis, or [[translation (biology)|translation]], occurs in the [[ribosome]]s of cells, where genetic information encoded in [[messenger RNA]] (mRNA) is translated into a specific sequence of amino acids. The process of protein synthesis is highly regulated and involves several steps, including initiation, elongation, and termination. After synthesis, proteins can undergo post-translational modifications, which can affect their function and activity.

Proteins are constantly being degraded and synthesized. Protein degradation involves breaking down proteins into their constituent amino acids, a process that is essential for regulating protein function and freeing amino acids for the synthesis of new proteins.

==Nutritional Aspects==
Dietary proteins are an essential part of human nutrition, providing the amino acids needed for the synthesis of body proteins. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained from the diet. Animal sources of protein, such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy, are considered complete proteins because they contain all the essential amino acids. Plant sources of protein can be combined to provide all the essential amino acids.

These conditions are often referred to as proteinopathies or conformational diseases.
