Globular proteins usually have a
spherical shape caused by tightly
folded polypeptide chain.
HEMOGLOBINOPATHIES
• Sickle cell (HbS) disease
– Caused by a single mutation in b-globin gene
• Hemoglobin C disease
– Caused by a single mutation in b-globin gene
MYOGLOBIN
-STORES AND SUPPLIES OXYGEN TO THE HEART AND MUSCLE ONLY
• Pepsin acts on the complex dietary protein and breaks up into peptides and
amino acids which can be easily absorbed by the intestinal linings
DENATURING PROTEINS
• If the bonds that maintain a protein’s shape are broken, the protein
will stop working properly and is denatured.
