What size molecules are proteins (compared to other molecules in an organism)?

• really small (micromolecules)

• medium

• large (macromolecules)

These proteins carry out almost all of the thousands of chemical reactions that take place in cells.

• structural proteins

• messenger proteins

• enzymes

• antibodies

These proteins send/transmit signals and information to coordinate biological processes between different cells, tissues and organs.

• structural proteins

• messenger proteins

• enzymes

• antibodies

These proteins bind to specific foreign particles, such as viruses and bacteria, to help protect our bodies in our immune systems.

• structural proteins

• messenger proteins

• enzymes

• antibodies

These proteins provide structure and support for the cells in an organism.
