Building blocks of protein.

• Amino acids

• Enzymes

• Micronutrients

• Ketones

The most abundant circulatory protein found in the plasma helps in not leaking water into our capillaries, preventing edema.

• Amino acids

• Hemoglobin

• Albumin

• Collagen

Are compounds of a protein and triglycerides or other lipids.

• Metalloproteins

• Lipoproteins

• Mucoproteins

• Chromoproteins

Are products formed in the various stages of hydrolysis of a protein molecule.

• Chromoproteins

• Lipoproteins

• Glycoproteins

• Derived proteins

This condition reflects an abrupt and recent deprivation of food which develops rapidly as a consequence of protein deficiency.

• Rickets

• Marasmus

• Kwashiorkor

• Beri-beri

Severe deprivation of food over a larger period of time characterized by insufficiency of protein and energy intake.

Present in the grey matter of the brain.

• Chromoproteins

• Lipoproteins
