Proteoses enzyme & peptones belong to which type of protein?

Correct answer: B. Derived proteins

  • A. Simple protein
  • B. Derived proteins
  • C. Conjugated proteins
  • D. All of these

Explanation

Simple proteins are composed of only amino acid residues linked together by peptide bonds. Examples of simple proteins include albumins and globulins Proteoses, enzymes, and peptones are all types of derived proteins. Derived proteins are formed by the partial hydrolysis of a protein molecule. Proteins can be hydrolyzed by either acids or enzymes to yield smaller peptides and amino acids. Conjugated proteins, on the other hand, are proteins that contain non-protein components, such as lipids, carbohydrates, or metals, in addition to amino acid residues. Examples of conjugated proteins include hemoglobin, which contains an iron-containing heme group, and glycoproteins, which contain carbohydrate groups. This option is incorrect

About Biological Molecules

The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
