for signalling and molecular and cellular recognition. These modifications may impart structural stability or unique structural features, facilitate protein folding, or promote intermolecular interactions. They may anchor a protein in a membrane or determine intracellular or extracellular position. Modification can alter the biological lifetime of a protein, and define the process by which it is degraded. Whereas some modifications are present on an entire population of a polypeptide, others are present on only a small subset of the protein at any one moment. Quantification of the extent and range of modification present in this population is not routinely analyzed, but could have important biological implications. Thus, knowledge of the possible modifications of a particular protein, as well as modifications induced by external stimuli, are of fundamental importance to research in structural biology and cell biology alike. Protein biology also includes the design of new proteins to test biological and physiological hypothesis. One can now design and prepare novel protein with new functions that cannot be isolated from nature. How can one manipulate proteins to understand their original function or to make them perform new ones? On what principles can these designs be based? Both molecular biological and chemical synthetic procedures have made it possible to alter polypeptides structure to probe details of function. Strategies can be developed to alter a single amino acid, to substitute a nonnatural residue, or to mix and match functional units to create new biological entities. Last, but not the least, the bioinformatics has accelerated the development of protein study. General Concept of Protein (see also page 1 in Text) Protein Functions Protein Structures The Building Blocks of Proteins Polypeptide Chain Conformation of Polypeptide Chain Protein Structure Biology Interactions of Protein with Other Molecules Protein Engineering Proteome and Proteomics Proteome indicates the PROTEins expressed by a genOME or tissue. Despite being first used in late 1994 at the Siena 2D electrophoresis meeting, the term proteome is already widely accepted. Zit is mentioned in more than 30 papers (till the end of 1997), including those from Science and Nature, and ―Proteomics: has been the subject of a rash of conference in 1997. The antecedent for proteome is genome, itself a relative new word. Recently, genome has bee a generic term for ―big science‖ molecular biology. People think of grand dreams like the human genome project in the context of genome. And the genome projects have captured the imagination of scientific funding bodies and the biotechnology industry. By sequencing the entire genome of an anism, here for the first time in biology is the plexity of an anism understood at the level of information content. The proteome, unlike the genome, is not a fixed feature of an anism. Instead, it changes with the state of development, the tissue or even the environmental conditions under which an anism finds itself. There are therefore many more proteins in a proteome than gens in a genome, especially for eukaryotes. This is because there can be various ways a gene is spliced in constructing mRNA, and there are many ways that the same protein can be posttranslationally altered. So one of the famous dogmas of biology, the onegeneoneenzyme hypothesis of Beadle and Tatum, is no longer tenable.

Chapter 2 Physicchemical Properties of Proteins Chapter 3 Methods for Characterization and Purification of Proteins To analyze the structure of a protein, we must isolate it from the plex mixture of substances in which it exists in whole cell. The primary object of this chapter is to describe techniques and strategies used for protein purification. Because these procedures are often used for protein characterization as well, they will add to the methods already discussed for protein characterization. Methods of Protein Characterization First we will discuss methods used for protein characterization. Some of them will be discussed in later related chapters. Solubility Reflects a Balance of Prote。
