Pancreas

is stored as body fat

deoxryibonucleic acid (DNA)

Protein synthesis is directed by a compound in the cell nucleus called ___________.

20

Proteins consist of a chain of some combination of ____ unique amino acids.

1. fighting off the flu and other infections 2. transporting nutrients through the blood 3. aiding in digestion

Proteins play important roles in the body, including _____.

1. Mechanical digestion results in the formation of a bolus. 2. Stomach acid denatures proteins 3. Pepsin breaks the polypeptide chains into shorter chains. 4. Pancreatic enzymes cleave peptide bonds,leaving dipeptides, tripeptides, and single amino acids. 5. Enzymes from the small intestine lining act on protein remnants, breaking them into single amino acids, which are absorbed into the cells of the lining. 6. Single amino acids travel through the bloodstream to the portal vein and then to the liver.

Ranking Steps Of Protein Digestion

Single amino acids, dipeptides, and tripeptides are absorbed here.

Small Intestine

*HCI denatures protein here *HCI is secreted here *Pepsin is formed from pepsinogen

Stomach

1. Mechanical digestion in the mouth breaks down the food. 2. A bolus enters the stomach. 3. Hydrochloric acid denatures proteins and activates pepsinogen to form pepsin. 4. Pepsin breaks down proteins into polypeptide strands. 5. Chyme travels from the stomach to the small intestine. 6. Enzymes from the pancreas are secreted into the small intestine. 7. Enzymes in the small intestine break down polypeptide strands into mostly tripeptides and dipeptides. 8. Tripeptides and dipeptides are broken down into single amino acids that enter the blood and travel to the liver.

The Process of Protein Digestion

1. Proteins called antibodies aid the immune system in its fight against bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substance by binding to them and helping to inactivate or destroy them. 2. Hormones direct activity in the body and can be made of proteins or lipids. 3. A high-protein diet can increase the risk of kidney stones 4. Transport proteins carry many substances through the blood or allow movement of substances in and out of cells. 5. Inadequate intake of protein and/or calories is known as protein-energy malnutrition 6. Most enzymes are proteins, but some may utilize coenzymes in the form of vitamins to help with reactions. 7. Proteins help control the acid-base balance in the body by acting as buffers. 8. Kwashiorkor is a severe deficiency of dietary protein, resulting in swelling in the feet, legs, and stomach among other symptoms.

The Vocabulary Of Protein

1. Pepsin is the active form of a digestive enzyme in the stomach that breaks polypeptide chains into smaller polypeptides. 2. Cleavage of proteins by pepsin in the stomach results in formation of polypeptide strands which get broken down further in the small intestine. 3. An amino acid chain made up of three amino acids joined together is called a tripeptide. 4. Dipeptide describes an amino acid chain made up of two amino acids joined together. 5. The 20 different amino acids are the building blocks used for protein synthesis. 6. Amino acid pools are stockpiles found in the blood and other cells of the body that can be used to build new proteins. 7. The continual process of degrading and synthesizing protein is called protein turnover. 8. Denaturation occurs when a protein is exposed to heat, acid, bases, or mechanical agitation resulting in unfolding of the protein, though the peptide bonds remain intact. 9. The part of an amino acid that contains nitrogen is called the amine group 10. The acid group is also known as the carboxyl group. 11. Single amino acids that are absorbed in the small intestine travel to the liver via the portal vein.

What food can be eaten with brown rice to ensure all of the body's amino acid needs are met?

1. Many amino acids are used to build and maintain body tissues, make new clotting proteins, enzymes, antibodies, neurotransmitters, and other products. 2. Some amino acids are degraded and the nitrogen excreted in urine while the carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen remains are used for energy, or are stored as fat. 3. A limited supply of all amino acids remains in amino acid pools in the blood and inside the cells.

What happens to the amino acids that are absorbed after the digestive process is complete?

49 grams

What is the daily protein requirement for Sarah, a 136-lb, moderately active 32-year-old woman?
